DASHING THROUGH DECEMBER!

It is hard to believe that December is here already! During the next two weeks, we will be very busy wrapping things up and tying loose ends in various areas of learning!

ADDISON'S HOLIDAY SHOPPE 
Saturday, December 13 from 8:00 until 12:00
Shopping, Activities, and Silent Auction!
Thank you for your generous contributions to fourth grade's Basket of Chocolates for the auction.

Our Holiday Party will be on Thursday, December 18, at 1:00. Please watch for notices from our Room Mom for party details.
Enjoy the Winter Break! December 20 through January 5, 2015.
Students will return to class on Tuesday, January 6, 2015.

Next weeek's Spelling Sort 17 is ready at
SPELLERZ code ASK357
and
SPELLING CITY
We will be conducting some classroom Spelling Bees to determine who will represent us in the Addison Spelling Bee. Practice, practice, practice!

MATH
We will continue to work with whole numbers using all operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, Students are showing that they know HOW to use the strategies they have learned for computation and for solving word problems, but too often careless mistakes and forgetting basic facts of each operation are causing poor grades on quizzes and tests. Please remind your students to practice the basic facts often and that checking one's work pays off!

SCIENCE
Next week, we will be learning about Force and Motion. Our visit to the Science Lab on Friday will provide some fun activities and hands-on experiences that will prove some of Newton's Laws of Motion.

SOCIAL STUDIES
Over the next two weeks, we will conclude our study of explorers and will begin to understand the beginnings of our great nation.

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO TO SUPPORT YOUR CHILDREN AND OUR SCHOOL!
