August 25th-29th

Team Urban,

This second full week of school, students really stretched their brains by learning new things such as commutative property and division, responding to Literature by citing evidence, and taking our first spelling and reading test.

Learning new things can sometimes create challenges. Challenges we may have never had before. Reinforce at home that mistakes and challenges help us to grow and learn. Thank you for all your support at home, as our partnership makes your child more successful throughout the year.

THANK YOU for the birthday wishes!
Thank you to all the families that sent in cards, gifts, or special treats. I am so grateful for our ILCS families. Your kindness and generosity are above and beyond! The classroom was beautifully decorated as well! Thank you, Carrie and Angelique!!
