This week the homework packet for Raising Dragons will go home tomorrow due on Friday. The spelling list will focus on homophones. Please practice these words with your child as they can be quite confusing. In math we'll continue with Geometry. A Chapter 9 test will be given later this week as well as a multiplication quiz of 3s, 4,s and 5,s.
Our field trip is this Tuesday to the Museum of Natural History. We will be leaving from the computer lab at 11:00. You can meet us either at the lab at 11:00 or in the quad near the office. Our tour at the museum will begin at 11:30, so 30 minutes should be plenty of time to drive to Santa Cruz. I will have students eat their lunches before we go around 10:15. If you are a chaperone, please be sure your insurance information is updated.
Also, the holiday party will be Wednesday after lunch from 12:15-1:15 on Wednesday, December 22. If you would like to help or have any ideas please contact Eve Ortiz.
See you soon!

This week the homework packet for Raising Dragons will be due on Friday. Please be sure to sign and/or initial each page in the packet. We finished up chapter 8 (measurement) on Friday and will begin Geometry on Monday. Please continue to review multiplication facts with your child, especially the 6s through 9s. Students are expected to learn and know these after Winter Break.
The new reading log was sent home for both December and January. Several students forget to bring them in on Friday for me to check, so if you can remind them that would be great!
Our field trip to the Museum of Natural History is coming up on December 14. Mrs. Colassa has contacted you if the driver insurance needs to be updated. Also, if you would like to chaperone and drive with another parent, let me know. We have a lot of drivers and can double up if you like. The cost of this field trip is $2.00 per student (parents are free).
I also spoke to Mrs. Ortiz about organizing the holiday party. We were thinking about Wednesday, December 22 from 12:15 to 1:15. Parents can set up while the students are at lunch. An email should be coming your way soon. Let us know if you are free to help or have a nice art project.
Thanks for all the pencils that have come in this week. Please continue to send them our way. If you have Dixon pencils, even better. I've noticed that they work the best.
