Week of 11/16

Hi Families!

Sorry I haven't posted pictures of our art with the leaves yet. Check out the blog this evening or tomorrow for those pictures! The children did awesome! I sent home a family homework assignment yesterday that is due next Wednesday, November 18th. It should be great fun! Everybody will design a disguise for a turkey! I sent the directions and the turkey pattern home yesterday. :) Be sure and cut out the the turkey. I am really enjoying getting to know your children. They are a lot of fun! We have a few behavior issues we are working on to get to where we need to be, but we are definitely making progress. This class has the potential to be such grand leaders! We are zeroing in on that skill! I have SO many fun things planned ahead, but I have to have exemplary behavior to do them. :) We have to be able to have self control to handle exciting learning!! We are getting there! Here is what's on the agenda for next week:

Reading: We will finish up the story Owls in the Family. We will also read an owl myth and work on the skill fact and opinion relating to owl facts.

Math: Multiplication - 2 and 3 digit by 1 digit, Daily Morning Math

English: Owl report, Daily Morning English, Adverbs

Science: Owl fact test - Friday, Disecting Owl Pellets - Wednesday - Exciting Learning!!!!!! Hopefully, we can have the behavior necessary for this fun and beneficial project!

Spelling: Contractions - I will put them on spellingcity.com soon! The enriched words are the "r" list.

Social Studies: NE region posters, Location test - Tuesday, Capital test - Thursday Hopefully, your child has the study guides I sent home last week and has been reviewing them some. If the guide is lost, please let me know and your child can take home the text book.

That is all for now!
