November 13-16


"November comes
      And November goes,
      With the last red berries
      And the first white snows.
With night coming early,
      And dawn coming late,
      And ice in the bucket
      And frost by the gate.
The fires burn
      And the kettles sing,
      And earth sinks to rest
      Until next spring."


We began our week with a writing prompt and reading activity. Students read and analyzed text. They used evidence from the story to support their written answers. I'm very proud of how far students have come in regard to responding to literature using text evidence.  

Students took the spelling pretest for Unit 6 on Tuesday. They will have a spelling assignment due each day this week. The test will be given next Tuesday, November 20th. 

We will continue with Unit 3 in math this week. Please see your child's Home Link each night for our daily Learning Objective. 

We will discuss the characteristics of carnivores, herbivores and omnivores this week as well as their role in the ecosystem. We will continue to study producers, consumers and decomposers too. Students will learn more about the Native Americans who lived in each region of the United States and how the climate and environment affected their existence. 

Have a lovely week! :)
