Dec 15

Thompson Class News Dec. 15, 2014
Wow it’s hard to believe we’re in our last week of the semester.  Don’t forget if you are planning to attend the party you must have your ID scanned by Wednesday the 17th.  They WILL NOT scan IDs on Friday.  The party will start at 10:30.  Wednesday is hat day if you pay your dollar.  And remember there is a book swap if you wish to participate, bring a wrapped book and put your name on the “From” line.  We’ll draw numbers so everyone that brings a book will come home with a book.
Thursday and Friday we will release at 11:55.
If I don’t see you have a Merry Christmas and I look forward to an amazing New Year!

This week in our learning
Reading : Fact/Opinion
Math: 2 digit subtraction
Writing: persuasive writing
Science: habitats

Spelling: double last letter and add endings

December 1

Thompson Class News December 1, 2014

Welcome back!  I really enjoyed the week we had off, now there are three short weeks until Christmas break.  Some of you asked me when the class party was. I was told our party will be at 10:30 on Friday the 19th.  If you have not already returned your party letter, please do so ASAP.  I am trying to sort out what we have signed up for and what we are lacking.  Remember you may also bring a wrapped book for the book exchange.  Student Council is doing a fundraiser for December, bring a dollar and you can wear your holiday hat on a day the last week before we break.

This week in our learning:
Reading: types of media
Math: subtraction
Writing: procedural writing (recipes)
Spelling: ir, er, ur

Social Studies: westward expansion
