Weekly News

Book Orders
The deadline for book orders has been extended to Monday, December 8.  I will place the order that night and the order will be here before winter break.  When you purchase $10 of books, you can select a book valued at up to $5 for free!  If you order online, use coupon code CVC97JW.

Report Cards
Report cards for the first trimester are available on Infinite Campus (https://ic.svvsd.org/campus/portal/stvrain.jsp). The report card indicators can be found at https://drive.google.com/a/svvsd.org/file/d/0B_M8gCx2vvngTXh6QjZESHplWWc/edit.  The indicators describe specifically which skills were considered when the children were graded.  
Let me know if you have any questions.

Winter Assessments
We will be administering the winter assessments the week before winter break.  Please remember to practice letter recognition, letter sounds, and sight words with your student to help them prepare and read with them every night.  This will help students work through the assessment with less anxiety.

Gingerbread Man
Today we read The Gingerbread Man by Jim Aylesworth and The Gingerbread Cowboy by Janet Squires.  After reading the stories, we made a Double Bubble Map comparing the two stories.  The kids listened carefully and were eager to share their ideas about the stories!
