HW Oct 28-31

Grade 4: We will not be reading Skinnybones this week. The children have a Social Studies test on the N.E. region on Wed. The packet in the binder is the study guide. I will have night back on Monday for 4th graders only to study for the test together. Any 4th grader is welcome. The brochure on a state from the N.E. region is due Friday. It was sent home last Thursday. I am not assigning HW on Halloween, but please make sure your child finishes the brochure so it does not have to be done Halloween night.
Grade 5: Continue with the second Shiloh book. I believe we are on chapter 9 for Monday. No HW on Thursday: Halloween night.

The last day of Nature's Classroom

Our last day of Nature's Classroom was, of course, another adventure!  After breakfast, we had to head back to our dorms to clean up, then fill out an evaluation of the week, followed by one last field group hike (in the rain).  Even though we got picked up an hour late, we still had a great time having a riff-off waiting for it to arrive!  We were very sad to leave all of our new friends behind, but excited to come home to tell all of you our new stories!  Enjoy these last pictures from today! -Ms. Allen

Her positive share for today, "I had fun at Thursday Night Live" last night"
