Families,

Second trimester is underway!! We had a pretty good first trimester, I hope we can continue with the growth again!! Spelling this week will focus on Syllable Juncture in VCV and VCCV Patterns. Math will begin Topic 7 Division. I may be be showing the students another way to divide called "The Forgiving Method". If you would like to see how it works, you can you tube "forgiving method" and watch the videos. We will work on this later in the unit!. 

We are going to Santa's Secret Shop on Dec. 3rd for shopping!!

With the cool weather, I would recommend sending in warm jackets, hats, and mittens. Please talk to your child about wearing these when going out for recess, a lot of students feel like they will be "ok" without jackets, hats, and mittens. Not so much!!! . We will do a locker clean out/check again before break. Look for a pile of things to come home in the next couple of weeks:)

Have a great week!!
