Today in Social Studies, Mrs. Babbitt helped us plan the videos we will make tomorrow to send to our pen pals in Sardinia. Tomorrow we will make final edits on our letters and send them off Thursday with our video. We got a great video from them today and many many letters!

We also read some more of Fish in a Tree. We will post to our classmates in Texas later this week.  We are so worldly and connected thanks to Mrs. Babbitt.

Homework:
LA: Finish typed draft (or journal draft if you don't have internet access) for tomorrow.
Make sure all word study is done up to and not including blind sort
Read novel 20 minutes
Math: Page 70 ACE (I have forgotten what numbers)
skill sheet due Thursday

Here is a note about gift giving with our pals from Mrs. Babbitt.

Parents and Students,

Can you please consider giving a small gift to your Sardinia pal?  If yes, I'm collecting items to be sent via postal mail before Friday, November 20.  Our international gift exchange encourages our students to create something thoughtful and special for their pals.  If you are unable to make something at home, we encourage purchasing an inexpensive Vermont gift. Please keep it under $5, lightweight, and small.  Please no glass or liquids. 

Examples of homemade crafts and gifts: friendship bracelets, magnets, candy, and comics.

With gratitude,

Joyce Yoo Babbitt
