HI!

I can't believe this is our last week before Thanksgiving break!  Where is this year going?  I wanted to remind you that our Thanksgiving luncheon is this Thursday and our lunch time is 11:05-11:35.   Hope to see some of you there!

Here is our week of learning at a glance:

 

Reading Workshop-This week we will continue our unit on nonfiction texts.  We are going to begin our US symbol research since our Veteran's Day writing and craft took a little longer than we thought. I am hoping to get our project completed  ( a powerpoint, google document,  or article) before we leave on Friday.  

 

Writing Workshop-    We will use our writing time to learn how to take notes. We call it 'stop and jot. "  We will also focus on taking notes using our own words. We are still going on taking notes since we are researching. 

Science/ Social Studies-     This week in science we will continue to focus on sound and light energy. Please send in your shoeboxes so we can make guitars when we study sound!

Math-   We will continue our unit on geometry. We will focus on 3-D shapes such as sphere, cube, rectangular prism, triangular prism, cone, cylinder, and pyramids.  We will also focus on  vocabulary such faces, edges, and vertices. 

Important News:   Thursday, November 17 is our Thanksgiving luncheon. Our lunch time is 11:05-11:35. ( I wrote the wrong time on our November calendar). We are out of school all next week due to the Thanksgiving holiday.

Class Brighteners-We earned 3 class compliments this week. Please continue to encourage good behavior and following our classroom expectations.  Even though the holidays are getting closer we still have quite a bit of learning to cover! 

Thanks for all your help and support!
