We will only be in school for 2 days next week (Monday and Tuesday) becuase of the Thanksgiving holiday. For that reason we will not be sending home the usual homework this Friday, but we will be sending home a daily reading log. Please make sure that your child is reading every single day and writing down those books on the book log for credit. Have a great holiday! :)

We will be learning about a table of contents, chapter headings, and the best ways to organize information. Find out what non-fiction books your child is interested in, and try to check some out of the public library. (for example: their favorite animal)
We appreciate your support from home! Have a great week!
