Important Reminders:

• Next week, Monday the 5th, is our field trip!  Make sure your student wears tennis shoes and bring a sack lunch.  Chaperones will be chosen today, and notes will be sent home to those who volunteered letting you know if you were selected or not.  A reminder email will be sent out later in the week!
• Block schedule change just for this week: Monday will be a B day (library) and Wednesday will be an E day (Music).
• The Winter Festival is this Saturday!
• The Scholastic Book fair is this week.  Students may bring in money if they are interested in purchasing books!

Reading: This week we will continue our third reading unit: Reading to Learn.  We will focus on creating reading goals for ourselves as well as making sure we are reading nonfiction texts for significance, this means working to find something of interest each time we read!

Science:  This week we will begin Chapter 5: Ecosystems.  We will begin this chapter by learning how living and non-living things interact in an ecosystem.

Math:  This week we will begin Chapter 7: Multiplication and Division Patterns.  We will focus on the multiplication and division patterns of 3, 4, 0 and 1.  The test for this chapter will be next Friday, December 9th.  

Have a great week!

So this afternoon we escaped the Breakout Box and helped Turkey Tom get his pardon from the President!  It was soooo much fun!  Checkout the site breakoutedu.com to see what Breakout is all about.  Also check out the pics below!

Mystery Reader - Finn's Dad

Thanks for coming today and reading one of your favorite books to the class, "The Missing Piece!"  The students loved this book, and your singing!  😀. We also loved the book "The Keeper of Wisdom" that you read to us too.  They loved your voices you used as you read!  However, the kiddos voted the book with your singing as their favorite!  😜
