Field Trip!
I am so EXCITED!!! After much pleading and begging on my part KSL Studios has agreed to give my class a special tour of their facilities! We will be traveling to Salt Lake City on December 2 (dress warm) via the Frontrunner and Trax to tour the studio. The plan is for the kiddos to see the work involved in producing a news cast. They will also be talking about the different jobs involved in producing the news each day. We will also be touring the Salt Lake City Public Library to see the different architectural features of the building.
We will need to collect a $5.00 donation per child to pay for the FrontRunner Tickets. Please give the office your money as soon as possible!
All the forms were sent home with the students today, but in case they didn’t make it, here they are again!

November Project Due Date
Sorry…..the due date for the November project is incorrect! It is actually due Thursday, December 4th! However, we figured it out in class and if you do two pages per week for the next three weeks you can be done BEFORE THANKSGIVING BREAK!!!! I will gladly accept the projects are they are completed so that you don’t even have to worry about it getting lost over the long vacation! Wouldn’t that be WONDERFUL to have it completed and finished before the long break so you have nothing to do but spend time with your family! Just SAYIN’ 😉

2. November Project!!! Details on are the monthly project page and the rubric for grading was sent home with the kiddos today! They are creating a book about animal adaptations. The book should be TYPED, but if that is not an option, feel free to handwrite them in YOUR NICEST handwriting.
3. Library is back to normal as well this week. So, plan on having your books turned in on Thursday! This would be a great time to check out a book on animal adaptations as well!

If you know of a place, let me know!
