*I apologize for the late newsletter. I have not had an Internet connection for the past 2 days so I had to wait till I had time to go to the lab to write one.

Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving Celebrations with your families and friends.
The sun on Friday was a great surprise and one that I know I needed.

We have begun Advent and will celebrate Advent until Christmas.
In math we have begun our fractions and decimal unit. We finished up with our Multiplication last week and was very impressed with the unit tests.
In reading we will try and finish up Maniac Magee next week with a book final towards the end of the week, next week.
In English we have started to talk about Adjectives and will have a mini adjective quiz on Friday.
In writing we will work this week in the lab typing in our Legend Stories that we wrote the past 2 weeks as we started our Native American unit.
We are now talking about Coastal and Plateau Indians and each student will create their own Totem Poles that represent happenings and stories in their own lives.
