Reading/English/Spelling -
Please help your child to understand the importance of neat handwriting. If you can, have them practice at home. Their letters should be formed properly and neatly.
If I can't read an answer, it will be marked wrong. We will be working on this at school as well!
Homework: It will be the responsibility of the students to write down their own homework. We will NOT have nightly homework in ELA. Every now & again we may have homework. Please encourage your child to complete their homework when it's given.
