Christmas Celebration and More!

christmas celebration
Mrs. Eubanks and our class will be combining next Thursday, December 19 for a small celebration for the students. Below is a link to sign-up for items to bring to the celebration. I have also sent home a hard copy that you can return as well. Please try to sign-up as soon as possible.

Finally, I will be posting the next week’s spelling list later this evening. It will be very lengthy (50 words); however, the test will be multiple choice. ALL of the words are words that the students have had in previous tests this year. I will be picking 25 – 30 of the given list, so be sure to study all of the words!

Week of November 18 - 22, 2013

I know a lot of us are looking forward to Thanksgiving break in only six school days…Whew! Time has flown by this school year so far!

As an expression of thanks for how hard all the boys and girls have been working since August, I have eliminated a spelling test for this week and next week. However, we do have several important upcoming Unit/Chapter tests and quizzes over the next six days. Be sure to take note of the “Important Dates” and “Upcoming Assessments” section of the newsletter linked below.

Hope you have a blessed week!
