Ms. Shelly's News November 5

What a FUN FILLED week!  We had so much fun dressing up as a book character from our favorite story and participating in the school parade!  We also had our DASH celebration for everyone's hard work in meeting their class goals.  We were able to watch the movie "CoCo" with our Rocket buddies in the gym on the new screen that everyone's contribution help to purchase!

The School Thanksgiving Feast is coming up.  We would love to have you join us!

• Keep practicing your address at home.  Students need to know the house number, street, city, and state, county and zip code are not part of our standards, but it is fine if you want to add that in as well.

• Continue to practice sight words every night for 5-10 minutes.
