Dear Families,      

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I went to visit family in Arkansas. It was good to see everyone- it has been three years!  One of the things CCA does in December is Adopt-a Family through City Gates.  I have included some more information about the family and their needs on the back of this letter. If you are able to send in a gift,   please don’t wrap it.  We will have a wrapping party the day they are due, December 15.  I’d like to have some cookies to share during that time. Please email if you can provide some cookies.  Thanks J

Homework:

Spelling: Lesson 11.  Short U .   Workbook and test are Friday, DECEMBER 9

Math:  Next week, we will practicing multiplication  with 7’s.  The mixed test on multiplication 0-7 will be Friday the 9th

Passport: December  Passport went home today.  The test is 12/15

Reading/LA:   Read Read Read!  Reading calendar went home today.  Also,  Key boarding 2-3 times a week. 

PE    PAC Paper went home today^t. It I due 1/5/17

Bible: We will be learning the names of Jesus in class.

Keyboarding:  One of the goals in 4^th grade is to have preliminary mastery of keyboarding.  Please add 10-15 minutes of keyboarding practice to the evening routine a couple times of week. They like to hunt and peck, so  keep an eye on them and make sure they are keeping fingers in the “home row” position.   I’d like them to have mastered the first 10 lessons by the end of the semester, January 24.  When they pass a test with 20 words per minute (after several lessons) the program asks them if they’d like to print a certificate. Please do that and send it in with your child or you could email me and tell me each TEST that they passed.  The program that we use is  freetypinggame.net.   It is free if you can put up with ads.
