Quarter 2, Week 9

   The second quarter is coming to an end fast! We have a lot scheduled this next week, I know it is going to FLY BY!!:) A quick review of last week:

In Reading, we learned new Cafe Strategies.  This week we are going to just review our Cafe Strategies. In 4th and 5th Grade Writing, we started our Christmas gifts and we will finish them this week. I can't wait for you all to see them, all students have worked VERY hard on these. :)

In Projects, we had two dress rehearsals for our Wax Museum. This week, as you should have all gotten an email, the students will present their important person of the Revolutionary War.  We will present them on Monday from 2-3 in the school cafeteria.  All 5th grade students will be presenting.  All my teacher friends, please feel free to bring your classes in, so you can see your child's presentation:)  Hope to see you all there! If there is someone who can not make it, please let me know, and I will try and video your child's speech.

Here is a quick schedule of important events for this upcoming week.

Monday- Wax Museum -2pm-3pm

Tuesday-Penguins of Madagascar-leaving @ 10:10, will return as soon as movie is over

Wednesday- Revolutionary War Vocab Quiz-1pm (Students will have time to study in class, but if you are able to, please encourage them to start studying this weekend.)

Thursday- White Elephant Candy Bar Game-We will do this sometime during Reading or Writing, Please send any candy bar, wrapped, in with your child. ALSO ON THURSDAY- We are going to have a small nacho party. We are going to have centers of cookie decorating, playing board games, and nachos. :) Your child should have already told you which item they were assigned to bring. Please let me know if you are unable to send something in. 

NO AUCTION TILL THE WEEK AFTER CHRISTMAS BREAK. JANUARY 5-8.  Feel free to keep sending items in, but I figured with everything that is going on, it would be nice to have one less thing to worry about.  It will also be a nice thing to look forward to when coming back:)

I hope everyone has a GREAT weekend and a MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
