I am sure this is a burning question on all of your minds, and if your kiddos are anything like my eight year old third grader, the typical answer you get is, "I forgot!" I am hoping to be able to stay on top of my blog and post weekly what we are doing in class. Here is what is going on next week!

SOCIAL STUDIES
On Monday, November 1, 2010, I will be sending home a
take home social studies project. It will be due on Thursday, November 4, 2010.
Please feel free to assist your child, but please make sure that they do
a majority of it on their own! I want to see what they are capable of
accomplishing!
WE WILL HAVE A CHAPTER ONE TEST ON FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 2010. I WILL SEND HOME THE BOOK NIGHTLY. PLEASE MAKE SURE IT COMES BACK EVERYDAY!!! THE TEST WILL BE OPEN BOOK!
In class, we will be reading Chapter 2, The People of Texas,
Lessons 1 and Lesson 2.
As I said above, I will do my best to update this weekly and let you know what we are up too! We will probably have a math assessment on Unit 2 not this upcoming week, but the week after. We are super busy all the time, please make sure your kiddos are coming to school everyday!
