November 2nd

Today our class walked to the high school to see the Day of the Dead altars. It was really interesting. Some of the favorite altars were Michael Jackson, Steve Irwin, and Martin Luther King Jr. I will post pictures that I took there tonight on the blog. We also saw the paper flowers that we made in class used in a pretend cemetary. We also took a practice test to prepare for the WKCE test that we are going to start later this week. Our Junior Achievement person came into our class today. She will be working with our class for 45 min each week for 6 weeks. The cool thing is that it is my sister, so it is a lot of fun for both myself and the class.

Homework:

Reading: Because we didn't have our reading groups today, read your pages at home.

Spelling: We do not have spelling lists this week because of the WKCE testing

Science: Study your microscope sheet for the correct terms. There will be a quiz on Friday.

Other: book order due Friday. If you want to order online go to http://www.scholastic.comclubsordering/ and use teggek, teggek for the username and password.

I will add this link to the links on the right side of this blog.

Please list any names of veterans that you know on the star taht was sent home today. Color it, cut it out, and return to me Friday. Share the note that was sent home today about our Veteran's Day Assembly next Tuesday with veterans that you think might want to attend.
