Dear Parents,
	We hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving break! It’s hard to believe 
that in three weeks our winter break will begin. The students have been 
doing a wonderful job with their class work, and have come a long way since 
September. We are pleased with their progress.
	For the next few weeks, we will be continuing to work with our novel 
studies, grammar lessons and subtraction skills. 
The students continue to write compositions in their journals and are 
becoming proficient with summary writing using Somebody, wanted, however so 
then format. Our creative writing focus this month will be on a different 
animal. Our frogs will take a back seat to the penguin. The students are 
writing a cinquain and composition about this endearing, as well as, amazing 
animal from Antarctica.
Please continue to review math facts daily for proficiency.
