Look into our week Unit 3 wk 5 (1/14-1/18)

Good afternoon parents and guardians,
What a great first week back! My kids were on it!

Families, don't forget to use SMARTY ANTS at home. Log in information was given at back to school night. This is an amazing reading program that is also INDIVIDUALIZED! If your child still needs help with letter sounds, it will help them with that. If your child is ready to read CVC words, it will challenge them in that. 
If you have trouble logging in, please feel free to reach out to me!
