Thanks for keeping us in the loop this week when your child has needed to miss. Please continue to do that the next two weeks as we are SUPER busy in here!
From Ms. Fenwick
Spelling: No spelling this week!
Reading: We will be focusing on sequence this week using informational texts about the Colonies. The students will continue to read their own individualized selections for their Genre Bingo Card--we have started over for the new 9 weeks. Wordly Wise this week, with the quiz being on Friday! Don't forget that a Reading Check-In on eCLASS is due every Friday under Second Nine Weeks.
Writing: We will be focusing on Comparative Adjectives this week using a mentor sentence we found in a story we will read together, The Snow Globe Family. We will complete our informational writing about our chosen part of the Solar System.

Colonial Day
- Colonial Day will be December 18th! We dress up for this, so I've included some pictures of some dressed up in the past. . . Please know there are many ways to dress up and don't all require spending money. HOWEVER, if you plan to purchase your child's costume, you may want to watch the Halloween sales to get the costumes inexpensively.
