Week Eight

We end this week with the girls receiving their green progress reports on the back of the homework sheet. Please go over your daughter's report. All old homework from the past week should be emptied from the folder.

Please note the following events that are in store for us in the upcoming week:

*Students will not be in attendance on Tuesday due to Election Day.

*We will meet our Kindergarten Buddies when we see them for Buddies PE on Wednesday. We will also get to spend some time with them when we meet with Ms. Hanson's class on Friday afternoon.

* We will have First Friday once again. If you are interested in presenting to the class, please let me know.

* The Scholastic Book fair will begin next week. We will visit on Friday at 10:40 and again on next Wednesday (Nov. 10) at 2:10.

*The first marking period will end this week. Report cards will be distributed the next Monday.
Have a safe and happy Halloween!

The Math Poll Answer is...

The range in this set of numbers {9, 12, 6, 4, 28} is 24. Subtract the minimum from the maximum number in the set to get the range!

Useful Weblinks

There are some weblinks of note under the Useful Websites section. Please encourage your child to play with the multiplication game and to look at the two Native American sites when they have some free time.

Kindergarten Buddies

In addition to Class Meeting and Home Activities, we will begin the Buddies portion of the Caring School Community Program. Our class will be paired up with Ms. Hanson's kindergarten class and through the experience, we will explore good community behavior as we become mentors to the younger children.

Salt Dough Revisited

We have begun some of our work on our Iroquois Longhouses! The kids are enjoying learning about the different aspects of Iroquois culture.
Some students took home their salt dough because the dough has become runny or too loose to mold. To fix this, please just add some more flour until the dough can hold its own shape. This will help our budding artists greatly! Thanks!
