Weekly Update
Mrs. Wenberg's 4th Grade Class
Turkey Trouble
In addition, students will write a description of the disguise as if the turkey is talking (first person) and return it all to school by November 19th!
IT'S NOT TOO LATE!!!! We are still looking for postcards from the midwest region!
Our goal is to collect postcards from each of the 50 states. We will begin by reaching out to friends and relatives in the MIDWEST REGION (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin.) Do you know someone who lives in or will be visiting these states? If so, you can help!
All you need to do is send them our address: A personal note is encouraged, but not required.

Plymouth, MN 55447
We will be displaying postcards on our bulletin board to help us get to know the regions of our country.
Thank you in advance for your help!
