Week of November 12-16

 

Important Info:

Veteran’s Day Monday: No school!

Thank you to all soldiers who have served our country!

Downers Grove Field Trip: Thank you to all the parents who volunteered to go on the trip. If you were not picked to go, you can still come to the restaurant and enjoy pizza with us. (Just pay separately)

If you would like to donate to the treasure chest, that would be very helpful.

We are working on money! This is a very fun chapter for us. A checkpoint will be Friday, November 16, and the test will tentatively be Monday, November 19.

Reading: 

We will continue studying synonyms and antonyms this week. We will also meet in our book groups to continue/finish up our current novels. Lastly, we will be doing some turkey-related activities. The students are bringing home a turkey today that they need to disguise. They will be writing about it this coming week.

Spelling: 

There will be no pretest or test; however, there are Thanksgiving words that will be given out on Tuesday and a homework assignment which goes along with the words due on Friday.

English:

We are working on Unit 2: Nouns. We just finished lesson 1 and continue to work through the lessons.

We will continue our Downers Grove unit. The final test over all of the history will be Friday, November 16. A study guide is stapled to their packet. This is a great study tool.
