- Worksheets: Please look in your child’s green folder on Monday for worksheets with concepts that have been taught in class. The purpose of this homework is for a quick review, some practice, and a chance for parents to see what their child is learning in math. Please complete every other problem (alternate between evens and odds so your child gets practice doing story problems AND “Vocabulary Check”/ “Test Practice” problems each week). If your child wants to do every problem they are certainly free to do so!
Please help your child read the directions/example problems and allow them to talk about the problems as they figure out the answers.

Parents,
In the 3 years I have been teaching I had yet to cry in the classroom until today. Your sweet children gave me the most precious notes and more hugs than I can count. I walked in at the end of my morning to say hi and tell them I will still be around and in less than 2 minutes I was in tears. I just want you to know I love your children and not finishing out the year with them is going to be tough, but like I told them I will still be around. Mrs. Nelson and I plan to do a few things together so I can still see them.
Thank you for an amazing year and for sharing them with me. I have passed everything along to Mrs. Nelson and she knows where your students are at. She will pick up right where I left on in math and I will continue to work close with her. Thanks again!
Mrs. Bischoff
Mazzie, a war dog who was abandoned in Kuwait after his service visited our classroom. We learned about the sacrifices many dogs are making to protect the lives of our soldiers. Unfortunately, these dogs can be left behind after their work is done. Mission K-9 Rescue is striving to Rescue, Reunite, Re-Home, Rehabilitate and Repair any retired working dog that has served mankind in some capacity.
