Short Week Coming Up

Yes, can you believe Thanksgiving Break is here???  There will be an Early Out on Tuesday, November 24th and No School Wednesday-Friday of that week-November 25-27.  Enjoy with special time with family & friends.
This past week has been busy as usual.  Fun, exciting news is that the new Big Toy Playground equipment is complete and we got to play on it today for the first time.  Exciting.  Come by and check it out!!!
Also exciting was to meet Author Bill Merical.  It was so great hearing him talk about the book and share with kids the importance of strong character as well.  We were so happy to hear he will be publishing Book 2!!!!   YAYYYY!!!!
Lead 21 students should be finishing up their endangered animal research and working on posters here at school.  They are looking good.  Lots of research, writing, and knowledge coming from this project.
We will finish up Unit 2 next week.
Go Math-we are almost done with Chapter 2.  We will test on it next week.
Language-we will be working with singular & plural possessive nouns.
Montana History-we are learning about the Indians of MT from the 1700-1820's.  What life was like back then and how so many of them died because of diseases brought over from Europe by immigrants.  This will lead us into the Lewis & Clark Expedition and then the trapping/trading era.  Fun stuff.
Congratulations to Houston, our new student of the week.  Some of his favorites are:  football, the Steelers, reading, the color yellow.  His favorite holiday is Thanksgiving.  He hopes to learn more about MT History this year.  His idea of a perfect day is sunny and one where his dreams come true.
In twenty years from now, he hopes to have a child, live in a mansion, and play in the NFL.
Have a great weekend and Good Luck to both the CATS & Griz.
