The Fire Department brings a friend to school for winning the poster contest!




HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Due to the short week, two whole days, we will not be doing Spelling or a story from our Reader. In stead we are reading the novel "Sara Plain and Tall" as a class.

FYI- Tuesday we will have a math test on Ch. 7.

I hope each of you have an enjoyable Thanksgiving with your family.

Changes for the short week.

Since the week is so very short, Mrs. Spears and I opted to not do a story for the week. We are using frequently mispelled words for spelling> The words are: again, before, cold, does, always, friend, goes, help, keep, many, never, once, please, round, said, should, about, upon, while, and which. The test will be on Thursday.
Instead of Reading, we will focus on Social Studies. We need to catch up.
Thanks for understanding.
Have a great time off with your children.
