Week of November 13 Newsletter



Note from the Teacher
Don’t forget to send in paper products (paper plates, bowls, napkins, silverware, cups and baggies/wrap) for the local Community Soup Kitchen. We will be collecting donations until Monday the 20th.
Also, we are excited to start reading a new novel, The Witch of Blackbird Pond. This historical fiction novel takes us back to the seventeenth-century, as a young girl experiences the hardships faced by many colonists. This is a great book to help the students learn about the early start of our country. We will be reading this novel both in class and outside of class so please encourage your child to keep up on their reading assignments.Thank you for your support!
