Dear Mom and Dad,

This week was sweet because we had tech.

The best part of my week was tech because we got to find games to play. I am reading Philippa Fisher’s Fairy Godsister and it is about Philippa getting 3 wishes. In Science, I finished my letter to congress. Also, the book we are getting (diary of a wimpy kid the meltdown) will be coming on October 30. I want to tell you more about tech this weekend!

From,

Heidi

Note from Mrs. Hall

Thank you for your patience, as I was out two days this week. In math, we began our next unit on decimals. Also, we created two math groups by joining Mr. Hutt’s class, and each group will move at a pace best for your child. In Bible, we worked to understand the covenants God made with David and the Nation of Israel- we will be wrapping up this unit next week. We worked on adding evidence to support our claim for our opinion essays. In reading, we finally finished reading assessments! In science, students wrote their letter to Congress about taking action to protect our Great Lakes from zebra mussels. In social studies student groups have been researching a couple of different explorers, thier routes, their reasons for exploring, and their exploration needs. Students will be presenting their “sails” pitch to the King of Portugal or the Queen of Spain in the next few weeks. Have a blessed weekend.  — Mrs. Hall
