Special messages:
We had many people in our class that missed words on the spelling test because they capitalized the words. The children had a chance to go back and change any of their mistakes. I did tell them that it was an one time thing because in the future they should be counted wrong. I will give them a friendly reminder before we take the next test but…
Children received their CATWALK packets today at the assembly.
