Hello!
Hope everyone had a relaxing and thankful holiday weekend!
Announcements:

2) Our class is going to the holiday store on Wednesday afternoon. Please send money in a labeled envelope if your child is going to purchase anything.
3) Trimester 3 is ending on Friday. Report cards will be sent home on December 16th.

5) As mentioned last week, students will be keeping track of their clip chart colors this week. Students will have a calendar in their homework folder to write down their color at the end of the week. I would encourage you to check this chart daily to see how your child is doing and engage in a conversation if the color is not as expected. I appreciate your support at home! Below is an example of what our clip chart looks like:

Academics:
Math: We are wrapping up Topic 6 this week on Multiplying Decimals. The assessment will be on Friday. A practice test and a study guide will be coming home this week.
Reading: Jerry Spinelli book groups are going well! Ask your child to tell you about their Walk to Read book! Our regular reading classes this week will focus on informational text and note taking for our research projects. The class is very excited to get their research started this week!
Writing: Again, we are working on our research papers by starting book and online research this week. Students will be taking notes that paraphrase the text to answer the research questions we developed in class. Each student is researching a biome on Earth.
Science: We are continuing our weather studies with temperature and air pressure this week.
