Next 2 Week’s Curriculum:
Room 15 has been active for March is
Reading Month. Please encourage 20-30
minutes of reading each night. Practice
summarizing & comprehension by asking
questions about the chapter your child
read. Summarizing is a couple of
sentences and focuses on the highlights;
it’s less in depth than a retelling. Your
student knows the difference. We will
wrap up fractions before break (4/1
test). Report Cards come home 4/2;
please sign envelope & return 4/13.
Assessments will begin after break.
Encourage attendance and personal best
every day. I so appreciate your
continued commitment to your child’s
education. Your help at home allows for
more successes. Have an amazing spring
break! Mrs. Pizzo
