Assignments:
Family Writing--Write about 1-3 rooms in your home. Each room you write about should be a complete paragraph with topic sentence, at least 3 details and a concluding sentence or a transition (so the story flows from one idea to the next smoothly) into the next paragraph. Writing together encourages your child to see you having fun with writing, and allows you an opportunity to spend time with your child while he/she learns.
Be sure your child writes on the topic and turns it in next week!!
Literacy:
Language arts homework, “Peppers”, is similar in format and skills to the Oregon third grade reading assessment. It will benefit your child greatly to complete it each week. PLEASE feel free to help your child with it, even on some of the reading, if necessary.
Don’t forget to help your child to remember to read and to bring the RAH (Read at Home) folder back to school each day. If you don’t have time to read one evening, please still sign the card with 0 minutes written in.
Math:
* Math problems, similar to OAKS (state assessment), are in this packet to help students practice for the state math assessment.
*Math quilt for extra practice in multiplication is in the packet this week.
*Continue playing the 2 math games that I’ve sent home, “Multiplication Pairs” and “Count and Compare”. Please play these often at home. It will take a lot of practice!
*Continue playing the math game I sent home earlier, “Cover 50” at least once a week.

Supplies for Sierra Leone
This summer Mr. Ellis had the amazing opportunity to go to Sierra Leone, West Africa. He was able to instruct teachers on how to teach reading and writing. While Mr. Ellis was there he was shocked by the conditions these teachers had to work in. They have little to no supplies (like books and paper) to help their students learn.
As we are giving thanks this year for our many blessings, let’s take the opportunity to give to others. Join the school supply and penny drive! The penny drive will raise money to purchase leveled reading books for Sierra Leone.
Bring your pencils, pens, flash cards, and crayons and your pennies to your classroom by Tuesday, November 30th .
Here are a few facts about Sierra Leone:
Literacy Rate – 31% of the population is able to read and write
School life expectancy :
female: 6 years (2001)
