Homework & Quick Note 5/23/16

Homework
As the end of the year is approaching, homework will look a little different. There will be no homework packet sent home this week. Students are being asked to look around their yards for different types of plants and sketch them. Students should also be reading and using IXL or Xtra Math for math practice. Mr. G has also set up the Dragonflies with Qwerty Town. This is an online typing program where the students can strengthen their keyboarding skills. To sign in, students need to use their gmail account username (only what is before the @sau16.org) and their gmail password. We have been working so hard to memorize these so your child should know their username and password. If you have any questions, please let me know!
