Thwindy Thursday

We know that it is windy outside, because we just had a fire drill! It was a bit stressful, and it was very chilly. We all got out of the building quickly and safely, which is the goal.

Right now, kids in 201 are finishing the math test. They will extend their math period a bit, so that everyone will have ample time to finish.
Parents, please support your kids in learning their multiplication facts "like that." Fact fluency sets the foundation for success. With practice, they will get it!

This evening at home...
-read for twenty minutes or more.
-Math: show what you know/vocab builder in Go Math ch 4.
-Science: Mystery Science assessment

GTK
-Tomorrow is Field Trip Day! Bring a bag lunch or lunch box to school. We will eat in 201 after the trip.
-Picture forms were sent home earlier this week. I will be collecting money until December 4, which is out picture day.
-We will take a Reading/Vocabulary/Spelling test on Monday.
-The Social Studies Northeast test is on Tuesday. Today, kids had time to record the states and capitals. This information will be on the test.
-Don't forget that I will be checking IXL At Home each Sunday evening. I will be recording Smart Scores in Aspen. This week's skill is K.1. If you finish, move on to another Grade 4 skill.


Get ready for tomorrow's performance!  Image result for the bfg
......When Sophie is snatched from her bed by a Giant, she fears that he’s going to eat her. But the Giant has no intention of harming her - after all, he is THE BIG FRIENDLY GIANT!
The BFG takes her to his cave in Giant Land, where he hides from the other nasty giants. While they're squiffsquiddling off to Turkey ("to have turkey dinner!") he stays behind, cataloging his dreams, the dreams he blows into the ears of sleeping children in hopes of giving them very good sleep.
But when Sophie finds out that the Giants are headed back to England to wreak havoc on English children, she convinces the BFG to help her foil the plot, and no one other than the Queen of England will have to be part of the plan!

-Adapted from Roald Dahl’s modern classic book, this is great fun for students grades K-5, and perfect for libraries and civic centers
