Dear Parents,

To kick off the beginning of Accelerated Reader week, today we participated in D.E.A.R. day. We began a unit on Arthur Read and all of his friends (my favorite picture book series) in Elwood City. We continue reading Marc Brown’s series this week.

ITBS results are in! I have enclosed your child’s results with this letter. If you have any questions about them, please stop in and ask.

I will be gone on Friday for part of the day with some of the third/fourth grade 1st place AR students. The rest of the class will be with Mrs. Bremer completing various activities.
