I have been posting grades for ELA, and for many children, they could be better.
DGP: Daily Grammar Practice: Each day we practice grammar. Each week we analyze one sentence. We just completed our fourth week of this. Each Friday we analyze a sentence almost exactly like the one we have been studying all week. We take a grade on Friday's assignment. There are no surprises! If your child is not succeeding in DGP, please make sure they are studying every night. They have a DGP composition notebook with everything they need inside. If they review nightly, they should do well on Friday. I have only recorded two of the four assignments because I felt like they are still getting used to the activity.
Grammar: Your child has a grammar workbook. If you feel they are not succeeding in grammar, make sure they are bringing home their workbook and studying nightly.
It is important that they learn to study nightly even though they don't have assigned homework. Many of them still think they only need to study if there is a paper to be turned in the next day. Please help them learn to study nightly. Thank you so much for your support!

Thank you so much for making my birthday so special! Not many people get to spend their 50th birthday with 50 ten year olds! It was a blast! The flowers were just beautiful and the fruit bowl is perfect for me! I really enjoyed my special lunch from Panera, too! I truly appreciate everyone taking time to make me feel so loved. I especially want to thank Deirdre Wheeler and Lisa Kubiak for organizing everything. I am spoiled beyond belief! I'll post pictures soon! Thank you again!
