A surprise snow day! Hooray!
We have a short week coming up and then 5 wonderful days to spend with family and food! Here's what you need to know for next week's short week and the week after...
Quarter 1 Report Cards:
A friendly reminder that Quarter 1 report cards were issued Monday. If you have not yet done so, please log into your ParentVue account to view your child's report card.
Thanksgiving Travel:
If your child will be absent next week, and/or leaving early early on Tuesday, please kindly notify both the office and myself in advance. For absences, you may use the online absence excuse found on the Pinebrook homepage. For early dismissal, you may use the early dismissal form also found on the Pinebrook homepage.
School Picture Retakes:
School Picture Retakes will be on Monday, November 19th. Picture retakes are for students who were absent on picture day, or students who paid for a picture package and would like to have the photos redone. If you believe either of these apply to you, please send me a message and I will give you all the details about picture retakes.
No Written Homework Next Week:
There will be no written homework next week due to our short week. PLEASE READ!! Remember...reading isn't homework...reading is LIFE. :)
Focus Areas for the Coming Short Week (11/20-11/21) AND the Week of 11/26-11/30
- Reading- We will continue with our nonfiction unit, in which we learn ways to become super smart about nonfiction topics
- Writing- We will complete a few fun Thanksgiving writing projects and continue our How-To writing unit
- Math- We will finish our graphing unit by completing a Thanksgiving GRAPH-tivity. We will begin our measurement unit. We will talk about length, weight, volume, and temperature. We will measure with standard and nonstandard units. We will learn about tools used for measurement.
- Social Studies- We will begin our economics unit. We will explore the concepts of wants and needs, goods and services, and consumers and producers.
As always, I welcome your questions, comments, and feedback.
Happy Thanksgiving! As I count my blessings, your sweet kiddos, you, and the support you offer each day are surely at the top of the list.
