All students will be turning in their I Learned My Lesson stories by Friday. Most students have already typed their stories into the AlphaSmart and many have already run these off on the classroom printer. Remember to read at least 10 pages from the AR book each day including weekends. February 5th is the deadline for the first 5 points and all 10 points should be in the computer by March 3rd. Please don't forget to show parents your skills agenda.
