November 26-30

"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 the week with poetry, a writing prompt and reading comprehension questions. Students worked hard to produce quality written responses. We will finish our work with Bat Loves the Night tomorrow. 

Students will take the Lesson 8 spelling pretest tomorrow morning. Please expect homework each night this week. The test will be given on the following Tuesday, December 4th. 

We will finish Unit 3 in math this week. Please see your child's Home Link each night for our daily Learning Objective. We will review for the test on Friday. The assessment will be given on Monday, the 3rd. We will begin Unit 4 the following day. 

We will study the Native Americans of the Plains this week. Students will continue to recognize how the lives of the People were affected by the land, climate and ecosystem that they lived in.   

We will see a TIGER program on Wednesday afternoon. This assembly for third and fourth graders will focus on building a kind community.

Have a wonderful week! :)
