&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"&gt;We are still having spelling homework on the first day back after the weekend.&amp;nbsp; Students are to copy the words of the week into their&amp;nbsp;planners, writing the words twice.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"&gt;Wednesday's homework is usually to read the new reading story selection of the week.&amp;nbsp; Please listen to your child read helping them where necessary.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thursday night is for spelling practice again in preparation of Friday's test.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The focus question of the week is, "How can we work together to solve problems?"&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: #00ff00;"&gt;I hope you and your families all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday Season.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><guid>http://websites.pdesas.org/dmastrine/2011/11/29/383981/content.aspx</guid><pubDate>Tue, 29 Nov 2011 15:57:00 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
