Good afternoon!

In today's class we started off the day by completing a reading activity about Julius Caesar.  The children read about the history of this famous leader and answered questions about him.  The students continued on the day by writing a math unit test.  The marked math tests will be going home with the children tonight.  In language we discussed the proper format for writing a formal letter.  Each child received a letter from a student in Mr. Sawatsky's class, and we began writing our rough drafts back to them.  The students also went to music, and french classes.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice the weekly spelling words, get the math unit tests signed and returned back tomorrow, bring your completed candy advertisement back to school by tomorrow morning.

Important information:  Tomorrow is Casual Day and pizza day at St. Jude's.  I am still waiting for a few children to bring back their candy advertisements.  I am putting these advertisements on display in our classroom, and I would like everyone to have one to show.  Scholastic book order forms went home last night.  If you would like to order something for your child, please make sure you send in the forms and the monies as soon as possible.  Photo re-takes went home tonight with the students who had them done.  If you would like to purchase any of these photos, the funds need to brought in by November 30th at the latest.

Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
