Homework During Thanksgiving Break

1. Take Flat Stanley with you this week. Write a journal of your journey with him. Take photos and share. Have good time!

2. Practice your addition and subtraction facts using flash cards so you know them automatically.

3. Read AR (Accelerated Reader) books and be ready to take tests when you return on Monday, December 2nd.

4. Remember to bring your assigned ingredients for our gingerbread project. We still need lots of parents help to do this. If we don't have enough parents to help, we will not make individual houses to take home.

5. Remember to do your Reflections project! It is due Monday Dec. 2nd.

We wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving.
We are thankful for you!!
