* Spelling homework is due THURSDAY of this week due to the long weekend *

Monday:  Spelling #13 comes home.   Also in agendas tonight you should find a page that your child completed last week celebrating an accomplishment in school, and a non-academic accomplishment, that they are proud of.  

Helping your child to celebrate these achievements, and validating for them the things that they are proud of themselves for, can help them to feel more positive during a time of year they may be struggling in.
