Newsletter November 19-25
Hi! Here are some thoughts for the week to help you along. Thanks for a chance to chat
with most of you last week about your students.
Assignments/Projects/Tests for
the week/Other News
 Social Studies major Project Page 6
due this Friday. The whole project
will be due on December 21. Students
can work ahead, if they wish.
However, they need to be careful to
read the instructions closely.
 This Monday, I am gone on a
Professional Development Day (PD
Day). I will be updating my First Aid.
Hence there is a Teacher-On-Call
filling in for me on Wednesday.
 Last week and through to Christmas,
we will be studying the novel, The
Hermit of Mad River. It is an exciting
adventure that all will enjoy. I
estimate that we will read about two
chapters a week. This week we will
be reading chapter 1-2.
 Spelling Quiz for Lesson 10 on
Thursday.
 This Friday is a Spirit Day. It is “Fake
Injury Day.” Take note of the fake
part please; no real injuries please 
