Please send in the $6.00 with your student this week if possible. I'll be gone a few days next week and I'd rather not leave that for a sub to worry about.
As for the academic part of school, here's what's coming up:
Reading: Cereal Box book report, each student needs an empty cereal box by Monday Dec. 9. Books should be read, if not, have your student finish by Dec. 9. The work for this project will be done in class, except for getting the box and the prize.
Projects: We are currently working on an Earth science project about rocks, weathering, and erosion. This project does not require many supplies, but a few students volunteered to bring in tri-fold display boards for their group. Thank you for providing these! Our Earth science presentations are scheduled for Monday, Dec. 16. We will have seven groups in our class, each with information about one part of Earth's systems that shape the landscape. Each fifth grade team is working with a fourth grade team and they will have information about what is happening with the landscape, why it is happening, and where you can go to see a real world example of their focus area. We hope you can come see their presentations. We love having an audience! Time and location to follow.
