Look Ahead to Week 16!


Curriculum Tidbits:

  • We will be using The Best Christmas Pageant Ever by Barbara Robinson as a mentor text for our next reading unit.
  • In Bible, we will be reviewing our unit on Abraham.
  • We are in our third math unit in which we focus on memorizing the 6, 7, and 8 fact families and deepening our understanding of multiplication and division problem solving.
  • In Social Studies, we will be learning about the geography of Michigan.
  • This week we hope to finish writing and editing our persuasive essays.
  • The Bible memory passage for the month of December is Luke 2:6-20. We look forward to participating in "Sing, Move, & Memorize" led by Mrs. Winningham this coming week in which students in K-4th grades work towards memorizing this month's passage.
Other Tidbits:

    • There are a few prep-jobs that need to get completed before Wednesday.  If this sounds like your cup of tea, just let me know! (I'm guessing each job would take 30-45 min.)
