Short Week/Fun Week!

Catch of the Week:
Social Studies-Road to the Revolution, investigate causes of the Am. Rev. and do a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) activity Tuesday on designing an airtight tea bag crate. Which team can help the king prevent his tea from getting wet when those rambunctious patriots throw the crates of tea overboard in the Boston Harbor?
 
Reading- Continue reading articles on the 3 R's and focus on comprehension by looking for answers to who, what, when, where, why and how!
 
Language- One day to review the 5 rules for commas with a test Tuesday.
 
Math- take a peek into fractions while some students go to the EMERGENCY First-Aid Clinic for Long Division!
 
Science- Begin Light investigations (ROY G. BIV) and  Monday compete in a group STEM activity on who can build the sturdiest Thanksgiving Table (no hammer and nails allowed).
 
Surf's Up
 
 
Monday: Vocab TEST "Tread Lightly List #3"

 Cooper says, "Don't let Mrs. Gault's class beat you in 100 BC!!!" Read 4 lines each day over Thanksgiving Break for a total of 20 lines.  You can do it.

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!
Safe Travels...my mom and dad are taking me Christmas Shopping in Chicago on the Magnificent Mile.  I know what you're thinking, and don't worry, dad's got my poop bags.
 
Annual Polar Express Pancake Breakfast!
On Saturday, Dec. 6th, OES's PTA is hosting a pancake breakfast at Applebee's in Boiling Springs from 7:30-10:00 am.  Tickets are on sale through November 25th.  Come experience being waited on by the worst waitress in SC...Mrs. Johnson!  If you survive it, you can take home a coupon for being able to "eat with a friend" back at school that next Monday.
