Reminders:
1. These are a few reminders concerning homework and
classwork:
A. All work must be completed in
blue or black ink (other colors will not be accepted).
B. If the assignment states
that looseleaf is to be used, no other types of
paper will be accepted (paper ripped out of notebooks or
legal pads is unacceptable.
C. Homework must be handed in on the
day due, unless I receive a note
from a parent
explaining why you did not complete your HW. This will only be accepted if there is an
emergency at home or you were sick.
D. Homework and classwork must be
neat. Work that is sloppy or illegible will not be accepted.
3. On Friday, June 7, there will be a 12:00 Dismissal. Children can buy a NUT card for $2.00 to benefit a mission established in Haiti. See Mr. Wood’s blog for details!
Remember
that homework and classwork count as a grade!
