Weekly HomeworkHomework for the week is above (complete scanned copies will be uploaded on Monday). Please remember that homework is a review of previously learned materials. It should not cause stress for your child or for you. if your child becomes frustrated, they should hand in the work unfinished and I will review the materials with them. If the file isn't posted, it is still the students responsibility to ask a friend for a copy of the homework.

You can also print flash cards to study from. Contacting meIf you need to contact me during the school day and need an immediate response, please call the office (203) 255-8340.

New Books
Above are a few new books for middle grade readers. I am currently reading aloud the 2013 Newbery winner, The One and Only Ivan by Katherine Applegate. I know many students when they come home from school answer the question "What did you do today?" with "Nothing". To ignite a conversation with your child, ask them about Ivan. They LOVE this book and will be happy to tell you about it.
