Happy December!

Thanksgiving is over and the Christmas Season is upon us.   I am thankful that I am at Quest with you and I’m thankful for my fabulous class and their families!  I thought of you all last week, and hope you all had a safe and wonderful break.  Now we are going to work HARD for the next 3 weeks with some fun sprinkled in.

Dates to remember:
Dec. 3rd: Library (We usually go on Tuesday, but this week we go to the library on Wednesday)

COOL WHIP lids!  We are in dire need of Cool Whip lids.  We are starting our Parent Gifts this week and every child will need a cool whip lid.  We have a few more trickle in but really need more.  Please check with your friends, grandparents, aunts, uncles, anybody else who might have one so our projects will turn out.  Thanks for helping us find these for this fun Christmas project.

Homework:

Reading: 20 minutes every night.  
Math: Xtramath.org 
Spelling:  We will be keeping the same sort that we did the week before Thanksgiving.  With all that was going on the that week, we did not give the needed time to our sorts, so we will be keeping them one more week.  We will also be doing assesments that will help indicate if the sorts we have done so far are sticking with the students.  A new placement inventory will be given in January.  This will help me know which sorts will benefit the students the most.

Red Group:  sort 34
Pink Group: sort 11
Orange Group: sort 38
Blue Group: sort 55
