Holiday Stroll Tonight

PTA sponsored Holiday Stroll tonight. Lots of fun, holiday activities for you & your family: pics with Santa, decorating cookies, making reindeer food, chances to win a decorated tree. Come out and have some family fun. If you go, write Stroll in the planner for $300. Recorder quiz today and they did very well. Ask them what song they played and if they can tell you, write it in the planner. With our buddies today, we went to all the classrooms and collected food for the food bank. Bitterroot did a great job and will give the final count next week. Will also let you know how much we have for our Empty Stocking adoptions next week as I am taking all the loose change to the bank tonight to get bills for it. Thank you again for all your support & help to those less fortunate. Plans for next week: In Math, we are going to learn area and then we will find the perimeter & area of things/places around the school. Also, will be doing some fun Christmas problem solving with fractions and composite & prime numbers. We will also keep practicing our long division. Make sure your child practices their facts if they have not fully mastered them. It only helps with their computation process. Lead 21-finishing up Selection 1 on Monday by each group sharing with each other what they learned about the Atlantic States in their section. Then we will start Selection 2, but may not finish it before break. Skills are: predicting, generalizing, summarizing, prefixes, and vocabulary work. Montana History: We will finish up with the section on how the horse & gun changed life for the indians. Language is all review skills with Christmas related activities. Continue to read at least 30 min./night. Mark those calendars. Congratulations to Caden, our student of the week. We learned the following things about him: He likes the color blue and his favorite subject is Math. He likes baseball & cheese pizza. He wants to be a cop when he grows up. He had this to say to us, "I bet you didn't know I can throw a knuckle ball, change-up, and curve ball. Have a great weekend.
