Week of Nov. 3 - Nov. 6

Welcome back to another short week!  I hope you all had a fantastic Halloween weekend and enjoyed the extra hour of sleep.  I know I did only I don't enjoy the early darkness afterschool.

Notes:

• Hot lunch is due on Friday.
• Thank you for supporting the fundraiser.  As I hear more information, I will pass it on.
• A big thank you to our parent volunteer for Scientists in School!
• Another big thank you to the parents who sent food for our Halloween party on Friday.  The Human Resource department did a fantastic job on the organizing of the morning!
• Please remember with the nice weather coming (soon!), we have the two shoe rule in effect.  If you need help with having a pair of shoes at the school and one at home, please let me know. 

Curriculum:
LA: Spelling: New word sorts this week.   This round will last until Nov. 19 due to two short weeks in a row.
      Writing: We will be starting a new unit on Peace.  The students will create a Peace Poem.  I love this project!
      Math: We will be working on subtracting 3 and 4 digit numbers.
