Parents,

Welcome back from winter break!  Hope you received some rest and relaxation.  The next couple of week we will look at the skill of ie/long e and then ie/long I.  Your student should be reading and rereading nightly passages for comprehension and fluency. Have your student discuss vocabulary and the rule for the passage.  Report cards will be going home this week.  Conferences will be March 18th and 19th.  Look for more information to come home.

Have a great week!

Parents,

We have had a very busy few weeks with diving into suffixes and beginning Level 3 OG skills. As we finish this week, we are looking at the suffix skill (ive). After winter break we will move into the (al) suffix and then the OG skill of (ture).

Please make sure that your students read nightly and discuss the passages for comprehension. Don't forget the GP Gala on 2/23/18.  The time is from 6 to 10 at will be at Ivy Hall in Roswell.  I hope everyone has a very restful and safe winter break!

Parents,

Wishing you all a nice and relaxing 3 day weekend!  Next week we will begin looking at roots, prefixes and suffixes!  We begin with the rule for "ate"! (with the long a sound/verb/means to make or do)  These lessons will explore words they may already know and build on this knowledge and tackle harder words and learn how to build "word sums".  Please have your student continue to read and discuss daily passages and review their red words for the week.  Thank you for all your help and support!
