It has been a busy, busy, week here at Sunset for both students and teachers. Yesterday I attended a training session for a new program that we will be starting here at Sunset. Eventually this program will be available for your student to use at home to work on specific skills that they may be struggling with. I am excited to implement this and hope we are all able to take advantage of it.
The students have also been busy as we crammed a weeks worth of learning into 4 days again. We are moving right along in our curriculum as we will take our 3rd selection test tomorrow and the 3rd spelling test. Make sure to study those spelling words. It makes all the difference when it comes time for the test. If you are able to study with your child don't only memorize the spelling of the words but work with them on the patterns within the words. All of the words this week have an ending of -ED, -ING, -ER, -EST. They have learned this week how to change the endings of the base words to add those ending.
Math is moving right along and a majority of the students are doing a tremendous job of turning in their finished homework each morning. I think our take home folder routine is paying off huge. Please remember to check your child's folder each night and to sign the assignment sheet to confirm that you have looked at the folder.
