The big news is the animal habitat project that we are working on. Students are asked to comment on 4 areas about their animal and teach/present that to the class in an interesting way. The 4 areas of content headings are: Describe (or build) the animal's habitat, how does the animal fit into it's food chain, describe (or draw) what adaptations your animal has made to help it survive, some interesting facts. Presentations begin Nov 21st.
Language
 We will be going to our weekly visit to the school library on Thursday if your son/daughter has not yet chosen their book for their book review for the month of November)
Also, we have chosen to work on making predictions while we read as an effective reading strategy to keep us engaged in the reading.
