November 15 Newsletter

Good evening, Families!

I hope everyone has had a wonderful week. This week was extra special with our Veteran's Day assembly on Monday and special visits from our friends and family who are veterans.

Next week we will be introducing division in math, and we will continue studying ecosystems and informational text features in science. In reading, we will learn to determine if a text is fact or opinion, and in writing we will finish writing our drafts for our expository writing pieces about famous Missourians. In social studies, we will be concluding our Missouri regions projects and begin teaching one another what we have learned about the different regions of Missouri. We will also be visiting the high school to watch their performance of Grease!
