Hi everyone,   Here is your homework for the week:   Work on the article of the week and pass it in on Friday Dec. 5th. (Please remember to use facts from the article when writing down your answers. You can only make inferences from information given in the text.)   Read for 15 minutes nightly. (Don't forget to label your sparks with sticky notes. These will help you write your journal entry which will be due next Friday, Dec. 12th.) If you do not have any sticky notes, I will have some for you.   If you haven't already done so, we would greatly appreciate any donations that you could provide for our Christmas basket. All of the proceeds go towards field trips and other future expenses incurred by the Purple Team. We greatly appreciate your support. Also, students will be skating on Friday December 12th from 8:30-9:55 (students will need skates and helmet to come skating) If your child can't skate, please send us a writen note prior to the skating date, as we will need to prepare for students staying back. Have a great week!   Mrs. Gregan
