Our Room Mom is currently working with a few other parents to put together a wonderful winter celebration for our class.  The celebration is scheduled for December, 19th from 8:15-9:15.  More information will be given out as soon as we have it.

Learning Targets for Next Week
Reading - in reading we will be working on standard 4.RL.4 which discusses how to determine the meaning of words and characters in Greek mythology.
