11-12-12 Daily Update

Parents,

Great day of learning today.  We learned about why we celebrate Veteran's Day as we completed internet research on the topic.

In Math, students completed corrections on their Topic 17 Math test and then started an independent study activity learning about factors and products of numbers using Learn Zillion videos.  We will continue with this tomorrow.  The Math test will come home on Friday.

Your child has upcoming tests in Science and Social Studies.  (See below for more info.)

Reminders:
  • Math challenge slips go home each day
  • Turn in recorder $ or bring in one from home
  • Bring in Canned goods for food drive starting Nov. 12
  • Nov. 16 - Team Spirit Day  Wear you favorite team colors
