Families,

And I thought November came fast! Wow! Already time for December. Thank you to everyone who donated to our can drive–we will be able to provide many families with food this holiday season because of your generous donation. Here is a look at our week back after Thanksgiving:

Important Dates/Reminders

• Scholastic orders are due Wednesday, December 6th by 4:00 p.m. Please let me know if your order is a surprise so I do not send it home with your child! All orders need to be placed online using the class code: NNX2P.
• We have an Early Release Day on Friday, December 1st.
• Our Holiday Music Program is on Tuesday, December 5th (more information will come home regarding details).
• Our last day of school for the month is Friday, December 22nd (due to our break).

Reading: We are still working on learning about the characters in our story. This week we will focus on Little Critter. We will learn how to pay attention to the pictures to learn how a character is feeling, retell to learn more about a character, think about their actions and if we agree/disagree with them, and identify a character’s feelings and if they changed during the story.

Writing: We will be starting a new unit on opinion writing and how to write a letter to someone. We will begin by writing an opinion letter about a pet we want.

Math: We will be finishing up this unit and taking our test on Thursday. It will cover all of the subtraction and story problem strategies we have learned!

Spelling: Our words are: as, with, him, come.

Have a great long weekend,

Miss Reisdorff
