Mrs. Cook - Language Arts & Social Studies
This week we are beginning our Social Studies project on the 13 Colonies. Please have your child bring their device from home to use at school if allowed by you. We will also be identifying author's purpose in fiction texts.
*Look for a Holiday Spending project to be coming home soon. This hits math and social studies standards and will be a fun project for your child! Due: Wednesday, December 16th.
Scholastic Book Order: Your student may bring home Scholastic Orders from time to time. If you would like to purchase, the easiest way is by going online to: www.scholastic.com/bookclubs and using our class code: MCQ9Z
If online ordering doesn't suit you, you may choose to send a check (made payable to Scholastic). This helps us to earn FREE books for our classroom! :) I will submit the orders at the end of each month. Our next order will be submitted at the end of January.

*** We are in desperate need of hand sanitizer and kleenex. If you donate your child will receive economy money.
Thank You!!
Info for Parents & Students
- Please be sure to sign your child's planner each night in PEN with your FULL name (no initials). Students need to be proactive by bringing their planner to you with all of their homework listed.
- Each Friday there will be a conduct grade written into your child's planner. This conduct grade takes into consideration behavior, talking, work ethic (classwork & homework), and how well the 7 Habits have been followed each week.
