Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone has spent time enjoying family, friends, and God’s beautiful creation this weekend. I am so thankful to be able to work with each of your children again this year! This past week we finished our review of grammar standards from grades 3 and 4 in language class. In math we began our study of measurement.  Take note below of important information, assessments, and important dates.
