Wow! It is already November. I cannot believe how fast the time is going by. We will have sack lunches on Friday. Your child has already ordered his/her lunch if the plan to buy a school lunch. Some plan to bring their lunches. Please ask your child what his/her choice was and pack accordingly.

What are we learning?
Reading: In what ways are nonfiction texts becoming more complex? This is the question we are working to answer. We will be focusing on implicit main ideas and using text clues to understand difficult vocabulary.
Your child will be reading nonfiction books in class. Therefore, they will now be able to bring home their library book that is on their level for reading nightly.
Did you know that your child can access links to Quizlet on eClass? Here your child can practice their word study words to prepare for assessments.
