November 30 - December 4

Dear Parents,

Hopefully everyone had a fun and restful Thanksgiving break! My family and I went to visit my aunt and uncle out in Gordon, Texas and had an incredible time. It was nice to be away from home and to not feel guilty about relaxing instead of doing all of those more "necessary" tasks...like my personal favorite...laundry. :)

But now our little break is over and we are ready to get right back into our curriculum. Here is what we will be covering this week:

Social Studies: Past, Present, Future Technology
Writing: 6 Traits - Voice
Math: Missing Addends
Science: Finishing up Scientists & Inventors/Beginning Push, Pull, Force
Spelling: Word Families "ut" and "un" - sun, run, fun, cut, hut, nut, big, not, look, he

Also, your child brought home a "passport application" a few weeks ago. If you haven't already, please fill that out with your child and return it to school as soon as possible. We will need that form for our Holidays Around the World unit that we are starting on Thursday. It should be great fun! :)

And, lastly, don't forget to add our upcoming Multicultural Night to your calendar. It will be happening next week on December 10th and we have a number of our own students participating in some of the onstage presentations. So, be sure to come and see all that will be available that night! It is always an exciting evening. :)

Mrs. Green
