Team Mindcrafters Daily Update 11-18-13

Parents,

Reading - We are combining learning about folktales, with learning the structural elements of drama, by performing tall-tale plays!  Students were assigned their parts today, and will perform these plays for third-graders on Friday.

Social Studies - Students will have a quiz on Wednesday.  They were given vocabulary flash cards on Friday to begin studying.  Tomorrow they will take a practice quiz on Moodle.  After the test on Wednesday, I am reading a book to them with facts about the U.S. dollar.  Students may wish to have a dollar with them that day to look at, as I read the book.

Have a great night,
Mrs. Dressel and Mr. Pransky
