Tuesday is no school!  Take your children when you vote!
While they are home tomorrow, they should read for at least 25 minutes.
The Wordly Wise Quiz will be on Thursday, but they should use Tuesday wisely and spend the time studying their words.  Perhaps make flashcards for the meanings, or write a creative story using as many of the words as they can.
If your child has an IXL account, spend time on Tuesday reviewing basic facts and then practicing the skills they are currently working on in their math class. 

Other Upcoming Events:

Thanksgiving Harvest Lunch on Thursday.  Join your child for lunch and then stay and take them to the book fair!

November 12th is the Veteran's Day Breakfast and Parade.

Canned Food Drive is also this week.  Be sure to bring items in!
