Homework

1. Reading Logs: Leeor, Mia, Oz, Rafaela, Romi, Ronnie, Yali, Asher, Isaac, and Arya turned in their Reading log today. Educational standards require second graders to read for at least 10 minutes every day. My requirement is for students to read every day, and for 60 minutes or more of reading time to be accumulated each week.

2. Journal entry: Today Isaac, Leeor, Mia, Rafaela, Jake, Ronnie, and Yali turned in their journal today. That's 7/16 of the class. Help us to increase that fraction towards one whole.
