Thank you to those of you who were able to attend Back to School night last night.  For those of you who were locked outside and for those of you unable to attend, I have attached my PowerPoint presentation as well as the handout.

 

One of the topics I talked about last night was purchasing a class subscription to ixl.com.  An individual subscription costs $70 per student, however, I can get a class subscription for all 3 of my classes for $1000, or $10 per student.  I am asking for donations of $10 a student.  Of course, if you could sponsor another student, that would be much appreciated!  You can send a check (made out to Kelley Wilcox) or cash with your child this week or next.  THANK YOU!

 

The Unit 1 Summative Assessment will be on Tuesday and Wednesday.  Your child should be practicing!
