For Your Information:
Holiday Service Project
On Monday, I will introduce the Prairieview Holiday Service Project to the class. Our school collections will benefit two different groups: Lutherbrook (a home for abused children) and families of cancer patients (who also struggle financially). Please look for more details going home next week!
Congratulations to Mrs. Strong's Classroom
Mrs. Strong's classroom was the 4th grade winner for the most "Box Tops for Education." We have won a pizza party on Tuesday, November 27th. Way to go!
Order Your Yearbook Now
Yearbook order forms went home Thursday. If you want a yearbook at the end of the school year, you must order it now! Many students are disappointed at the end of the school year when some students receive yearbooks and they do not - if you want a yearbook, make sure you return the order form no later than December 3rd!
Subject Update:
- Spelling - Week of November 26 - Lesson 12: Consonant + y words with endings -ed and -ing
- English/Writing - Students will review about nouns. The Unit 2 Nouns Test is scheduled for Tuesday, November 20th. Then the students will be writing some expository pieces.
