Hello Everyone-
I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. We concluded our unit on American Colonies with our "Colonial Days". It was a terrific success and we thank everyone for their help.
As we move into our unit on the American Revolution, your students may come home with some comments about being "taxed" and how "mean King George!" is. We have a wonderful simulation that we go through with the students to let them have a feel for being a colonists during the Revolutionary War. Feel free to email or call if you have any questions with regards to our simulation.
We are excited for the Christmas season and all of the fun activities. We are headed to Ballet West on Tuesday December 7th for a performance of the "Nutcracker". Please have your child dress in their "Sunday best", dresses or skirts for girls and nice shirt and tie for the boys. The students will also need to plan on cold lunch that day. If there are any questions or concerns with this, please call or send a note.
In Math we have been working on division. We encourage the students to work on their multiplication facts each night. By doing so it will make a huge difference on how easily they are able to complete their assignments. We will also be working on graphing ordered pairs in the next couple of weeks. A great way to stretch your students thinking is to compare ordered pairs to the layout of the Salt Lake Valley. Have fun with it!
We are wishing you a wonderful holiday season!!!
