Math
We are working on our math modules. There will be warm-ups for skills review. We are also working on bonus work in multiplication, division and fractions/mixed numbers.

Next week we will be finishing work on how to use research and write a report in our own words, as well as give the writer credit through a bibliography.

Reesource Lab
In Lab this week, we are working on typing skills, following directions, symbol discrimination/sequencing-visual tracking and deductive reasoning and study groups for final exams. Part of class time is spent on study skills and part is for study groups or homework. Do not anticipate that they can do most of their homework in the Lab. ALL students are required to have their assignment binders every day. If they lose it, they need to purchase a new one at the school office.
ALL CLASSES
Homework is always due the next day unless it specifically says different. If you want to know how or what your child is doing in school each day, please check their assignment binder. You can also check schoolnotes.com and powerschool. Your child is responsible for writing assignments in their binder.
PLEASE MAKE SURE that if your child has EYEGLASSES that they wear them to school.
