Please see note in last weeks blog regarding memorizing/practicing multiplication facts at home.

This week they will be exploring free verse poetry, and will also read and respond to a few poems. In writing, learners will write about things that they are thankful for to show gratitude. Learners will get new spelling words after Thanksgiving break.
