Week of November 24-28

Dear Parents,

We hope you enjoyed your weekend! We are glad that the Broncos squeaked out the victory against the Dolphins- it makes our weekends a bit more enjoyable!  We have already arrived at Thanksgiving week! Please know that we are incredibly thankful for the Coyote Hills community, you, and your children.  We have much to be thankful for in this season!  We have a short two day week, and then plenty of time to relax over the extra long weekend! We hope for safe travels for any of you who will be visiting friends or family out of town.

This week we will focus on...

F.A.S.T. (Phonics)- We will use the two days to review our concepts from the last two weeks- long e and r family.  There will be no spelling this week.

Reading: In class, we will continue the work we have been doing, as well as learning more about Thanksgiving.

For homework: We will not be conducting reading conferences this week.  The homework students received last week will be due on their conference day the week following Thanksgiving.

Math: Both 2nd and 3rd grade math classes will continue the work in their current units.

Wordly Wise: We will be testing on the words from lesson 6 this week.

Writing: We will be doing a fun writing project this week! Students will be asked to write about how they would disguise a turkey to help it survive through Thanksgiving without being eaten.

Social Studies: We will continue our unit on "How communities are diverse."

FOSS: FOSS teachers will continue to teach the current unit.
