Be on the look-out for card games!
This year our Christmas gift exchange will be card games!
Please spend approximately $5.
Some examples: My Word, Quitch, Blink, Zigity, Uno, Skipbo, Swap, etc. I saw a
bunch at Target on an end cap, but the other stores
have them too.
Be sure to have your child select one he/she would
enjoy. We’ll play a game to exchange.
Be on the Lookout for Card Games!
Midterms Home
Midterms reports went home last Wednesday. Students have many opportunities to raise their grades before the quarter cut-off on January 8th. It is important that they work hard and do their best on each assignment and activity. With Christmas on the way, students are often distracted, but maintaining focus during instruction is vital. Please contact me if you have any questions about your child’s grade.
