First Trimester Skills
Dear
Parents,
We just wanted to send you a list of
skills we are working on the 1st
trimester of school. Your child will be tested on these skills at the end of
the trimester. You will receive a report card at that time so you know what
your child has mastered and what your child still needs to work on. Thanks for
all your support.

skill! If you have any questions please
feel free to give us a call.
