Cursive

We now have many students who have their cursive license!! Great job! Once again, many are very close to passing - so keep practicing! As I told the students, I am very picky about those who pass their test and those that didn't should practice their mistakes for our next cursive test. Until all students earn their cursive license, students will be taking the test a few days each week. Keep practicing at home!!

Even if you have your cursive license, there are letters to practice! :)

Writing

This week, students wrote a friendly letter. The letters were very good and I really enjoyed reading them. Please review topic sentences, closing sentences, and adding details. We will continue working on these concepts throughout the year.
