RHE COMMUNITY CAMPAIGN
The Community Campaign is coming to a close in the next few days, November 8th. The Richardson Heights school family is extremely grateful for the dedication and support of our PTA. So many things happen at Heights because of the generosity of our families and community. When you partner with us and give to our PTA, your financial donation ensures that our children are given opportunities such as:
- Additional field trips
- Extracurricular activities and events
- Educator training and professional development to support student growth
- Classroom supplies/equipment that go above and beyond the typical supplies
Every donation, no matter how big or small, makes a difference. Please consider supporting our students by making a donation to the RHE PTA Community Campaign.

Our learning goals this week!

Writing - Students will work on writing personal narratives.
Grammar - contractions
Phonics - /or/oar/ore/ controlled vowels
Math- Review for unit test.
Science - Students will classify rocks according to their physical properties.
Social Studies -Veteran's DaySpelling -We teach and practice a different spelling pattern and high frequency word list each week in class. There is not a spelling test, but the students will be graded through their writing assignments. I will be posting our word list each week. Please try to have your child practice at home. Some ideas for practice are: using magnetic letters, writing the words with sidewalk chalk, using a stick to draw words in the dirt and doing a practice spelling test.
Spelling words: fork, sports, born, oars, roar, more, before, now, our, when, then, some
