Just wanted to let you know.

I am so excited! This is the week leading up to VACATION! So much is happening! The apocylopse is on Friday, we made our mummies, and we are doing our passage impact.

What a wonderful week! We had a lot of fun with all of the various activities. We had Mistletoe Mall on Thursday and Friday, reminding us that CHRISTMAS IS ALMOST HERE!!!!!!!!!!! On Friday, we made the Nile Map. We had an extensive study on Egypt and finished Maniac. This is the riddle:

We are getting closer to Christmas! Everyone has began their advent calenders, and maybe some gifts are already under the tree. We began a new round of literature circles, as we near the end of Maniac Magee. We also had our last bible verse in 4 weeks (2 weeks of Jesus study, 2 weeks of vacation). We played charades, and had some great acting. We studied the Jane Schaffer Writing Program, and began reading and writing an essay on Edith Wilson-The Secret President by Sharn Lyn Zuber. See you next week!
