Early Update

Reminder this week is a short week.  We have a full day of school on Monday and noon dismissal on Tuesday.  We have no school Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.  School resumes Monday, December 1.

We will be doing lots of fun Thanksgiving activities this week.  We have an a few art projects we will be working on.  One will be a watercolor cornucopia and the other will be a long-legged turkey.  We also have some writing projects.  One will be about the long-legged turkey and the other is writing a how to disguise a turkey using the turkeys the kiddos disguised at home. We will not have a spelling test this week.  In math, we will be working on related facts.

Our week after Thanksgiving will be used to wrap up unit 2 in Lead 21.  Our focus question is, "How can matter change?"  As always, we will be reading a variety of books that will help us answer this question.  Our spelling words will be short e words.

In math, we will continue to work on fact families and subtraction strategies.  We will learn to use addition to subtract,  and use 10 to subtract.  We will also do a missing addend review.

During writer's workshop will continue to learn how to write an information piece.  We will use a website called PebbleGo and write about an animal.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and if you are traveling drive safely!
