Thank you to the parents for signing the homework sheets.
You should have seen a green sheet that shows me your child is practicing his/her flash cards. Students need to practice daily, so this will help get them excited about doing it!
Just initial the sheet for each day.
Students will hand it in every Tuesday to collect play money for the days they have practiced. Thank you for this help at home.
