Important Announcements
• It is time to start reviewing all material for the final evaluation. The first step is to make sure your child’s Hindi binder contains all the pages in sequence. We do take pages out of the binder to check homework, and we try to put them all back where they belong. But sometimes pages accidentally get lost or out of order. Please check the binder to make sure you have everything, by examining the page numbers at the bottom of each page! If not, let us know!
• Note that we DO have class this Sunday (April 8), but NOT the following Sunday (April 15).
• Homework and attendance do count! Without a minimum of 70% attendance and homework completion, your child cannot advance to Level 2 next year. I will be sending out a separate email to those parents whose children are at risk of missing this requirement. Homework for this week is specified below.
• Please be on time. A lot of kids are arriving late, and we mark those kids as tardy. Class starts promptly at 11:00.
• Please make sure your child has a folder with pockets where he/she can keep homework sheets and other loose sheets that are handed out in class. Also, every student should come to class with a pencil, eraser, notebook, scissors, glue stick, crayons or colored pencils, and a water bottle. Thanks!
