This Friday we have the Unit 3 English test on verbs. Please review the English assignments with your child a couple times this week if possible. This Friday is the last day of the second quarter and is an early release day.  This is a review week for spelling - because of DORA we did not write the spelling words in the planner today.  I will give the students a computer-generated copy of the spelling words tomorrow.
