DEAR ROOM 12,
Our class is in their new groups and we are back to it for a full week of learning and fun. Report cards go home Monday so please sign and return the envelopes.

This week our class will finish reading Crispin and it will be the last week of vocabulary for three weeks. In addition, we will wrap up our Medieval Power Point Projects in the Computer Lab on Wednesday. Part of this assignment will be a portrait of their famous person. Each student will have all week to create their own portrait of their hero. We will print up a pic from the Internet and do the rough drafts in class on Monday and Tuesday. Students may use the paper I provide, or even get fancy and use a canvas. This art will be displayed on the wall in class.

In Math we will resume our work with fractions when we begin adding and subtracting mixed numbers with different denominators.

In writing we will begin our 5 paragraph essays about what we are thankful for. Finally, in American History we are learning about the original colonies and each group chose a colony to study.

Last, but not least, I have a tradition each year to have a Thanksgiving Feast. Each child signs up to bring some family dish and shares it with the class on Tuesday, November 22nd. Tomorrow I will send home the form and you can write down 3 of your favorite dishes. From this, I will e-mail the menu. Parents are all invited!

It's going to be a great week!
