This week's update

Hello everyone!

Tomorrow the book reports are due.  Extra copies can be downloaded from the forms link on the side of the blog.  We started a new vocabulary unit (Unit 6 in the orange vocabulary book), and we will have a vocabulary test next Wednesday before we leave for winter break. 

The kids are actively working on their explorers project in class, and we want to get to the point where all they will have to do when they get back from winter break is type. 

The states quiz (take 2!) will be on Friday. 

Also, our class is collecting tzedakkah to help rebuild the forests that have been destroyed in Israel's recent wildfire.  We will be collecting through Friday of this week.

Have a great Wednesday!

Happy Hero Day!

Today, we had Dwight Howard, Hermione Granger, Jeff Foxworthy, multiple Matt Ryans, and many other fabulous heroes in our classroom. 

The costumes were great, and the book fair is awesome!  Our class will preview the book fair on Monday, November 29. 

I have added links to the 2nd Quarter Book Report rubric, instructions, and outline on to the "Forms" page of the blog so the students can work on the book report during Thanksgiving break inbetween eating turkey legs and pumpkin pie. (MMMmmm! Pumpkin pie!)
