Hello Parents, Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a great week! 

Reading- They are taking their unit 2 test this week. The scores won't go home until probably after Thanksgiving.  They have their book reports due on Thursday. I know many have chosen the poster. Hopefully next time we will get more of a variety! When we get back from Thanksgiving we will start the next unit. Our next unit focuses all of its stories around the Revolutionary War. I believe almost all of them focus on a person who played a role (major and minor) in that war. 

Math- This week they are working on learning the standard algorithm in long division. This is the way you were taught. Some have caught on pretty quickly. Others are having to go a little slower. It's not a surprise. This is a shorter chapter so we will most likely test sometime in early December. 

Religion- Our chapter this time is about the eight Beatitudes. They  don't have to memorize them, but they will work on creating lists of ways we can live the Beatitudes out in our daily lives.

The 5th graders will also have their next mass on November 29. I believe Father is also blessing our Advent wreaths. Our Advent Angel activities will begin that day as well. 

November 20 is our Frey Pizza Lunch for TJ and Nate. No guests at lunch that day please. 


Food Pantry- We will go to work there on Friday, Nov. 17. 

Have a great weekend! I am going to be doing a second coat of paint in my basement and my report cards! 
God Bless, 
Miss Surma
