  Hi Everyone! I hope you had a good weekend! The days are getting colder and the mornings are even cooler. Please make sure you are dressed for the weather and you have your hats and mittens.     Phys. Ed Our Phys. Ed days this week are Monday, Tuesday and Thursday.      Report Cards/ Parent Teacher Report cards will go home on Tuesday. Parent Teacher Interviews are: Thursday 4:00 - 6:00 PM and Friday 9:00 - 11:30 AM.There is no school for students on Friday November 20th.  Skating Our first skating day this year will be on Thursday November 19th. We will be skating with our buddies in 5S. Students need to have skates and helmets to go on the ice. If you need skates we do have some extra at the school, so please let me know. Parents are welcome to join us if you can.  Math In Math we are doing some work with 10s and 1s and place value. You can still work on counting in different ways and count with money at home.   Homework/Borrow-A-Book The homework for the week is listed in the blue folders. Our spelling words this week focus on words with /ar/ sound in them. Math sheets are on estimation. We have done a lot of work in class on this. Please make sure you are reading each night and using the strategies we have been working on. Remember to record your book on the log sheet.  Class Project With Texas We were unable to meet with our friends last week because they could not connect with us. We did our report today (Monday) instead. Ryan, Cayden and Riley did a super job as the weather and class reporters and poetry reader. We are going to meet again on Wednesday because they are off next week for their Thanksgiving holiday.  Play With Your Food Art Show We will be having our annual Play With Your Food Art Show next week on November 25th. This is one of the activities we do with our friends in Texas. We will be discussing the project in class and reading books about it. A memo will go home this week to explain the project. You can also check the image galleries on our class page and the school page for pictures of past shows.   Food Drive We are still collecting items for the Food Bank. Please bring in some items if you can.    Have a fabulous week!
