I hope everyone had a nice Veteran's Day. I truly thank anyone who has served to make our county the great place it is. With that, however, we will be moving forward even though it is a short week.
Reading
Students will focus on cause and effect this week during their reading block. We will continue to use the Social Studies textbook and build our background knowledge up to the American Revolution. Once students have the needed background knowledge we will move into the reading textbook and begin the unit Voices of the Revolution. Ask your child what they are learning about he development of the Americas.
Writing
Students will begin thinking about someone they would like to know more about. This week we will add some "People Worth Knowing" to our wall. Ask your child who they have learned about in history so far.
Spelling
Students should be studying their spelling bee list at home in preparation for our classroom bee. We will have our class written spelling bee test on November 22.
Dates to remember:
November 20.........................Early dismissal
November 22.........................Classroom Spelling Bee test
November 27-December 2....Thanksgiving Holiday
Until next time,
R. O'Steen
