November 7 (Saturday) -Hope of America program, Cedar City’s birthday

 celebration.

        If you signed up your child to perform in this event, you need to

        take him/her to Cedar High School at 4:45 PM so they can practice all

        together. Students should wear a red, white , or blue shirt. The

        performance begins at 6:00 PM in the CHS auditorium.

        This should be an inspiring production.  We hope you can attend.

November 25-27 (W-F)- Thanksgiving Holiday

Science:  Our volcano explosions were exciting to watch.  Thanks for helping your child with this assignment.  We have officially ended our Earth Science unit, and are learning about chemical and physical changes.  This is a popular unit of explorations and explosions, as we play with chemicals and other substances.

Social Studies:  We are coming to a close in our American Revolution Unit, and will be learning about our US Government and Constitution.

SAGE Formative Testing: We just finished taking the Reading and Writing tests. These tests will tell us what our students still need to learn this year, and will guide our instruction in the coming months.  

Language Arts: No spelling lists for the few weeks. We have begun a Poetry Unit, and we’re learning some high school content, and learning to write poetry. Fun unit!

Reading: Students should be reading every day at home. Thanks for monitoring this and returning planners (Mrs. Little/Williams), and response journals (Mrs. Payne).

We have begun a new quarter, so all students should be on top of all their assignments. If they have fallen behind already, please help them catch up. Thanks for supporting us and encouraging your children. They are great kids!  We will be posting our next newsletter update on November 18.
