Next week we will be continuing with our story and activities from this week. We will continue to read Exploring Parks with Ranger Docket. We will not have a spelling test or spelling homework next week.

MATH
In math we are continuing to work on adding two-digit problems. Our test will be on Monday. Our next chapter will be on two-digit subtraction. Please remember to practice flash cards daily.

Social Studies
We are starting a new unit on our country long ago. We will be learning about the Native American Indians, pilgrims and the beginnings and growth of our country.

Congratulations to all the children who read for 21 days in October. We celebrated by watching a movie while eating in our classrooms. I hope we can have 100% participation in November.
