The students will be learning about the different types ofpronouns, as well as learning to pick out prepositional phrases.

All of the classes will continue to work on their handwriting and penmanship skills.In social studies, the 4th-5th grades will be starting their unit on the Mid-West while the 6th-8th grades will be continuing their study of Kansas History.In tech class the 4th and 5th grades will continue to practice their typing skills, while students in strategy class will be working on problem solving to prepare for our field trip to Locked Manhattan.In art classes, the students will start off the quarter with creating self-portraits before learning about art tessellations and using different textures in art.I want to express my gratitude to everyone who has been praying for my family during this Holiday Season.
