• Please remember that all songs lyrics for
groups 1-4 can be found above my desk in the group

• The group 1-2 “Book of the Week”
is posted by my locker in the 1-2 hallway.
• Group 7 and group 8 homework and important
information is posted in the 1-2 hallway.
• In the same area you will find samples of
what the group 4 students have done in class as well
as the letters they have learned.
• You can find samples of group 7 and group
8’s work by their classrooms.
• All important vocabulary words for groups
1-4 can be found on my locker and most of the vocabulary
for groups 7 and 8 is on the unit overview sheets
hung up in the 1-2 hallway.

is doing in English class, please feel free to e-mail
