October 2nd

Good Afternoon,

This last week was as great week in the 4th  grade class. Our week was spent reviewing the 1st 5 weeks in our reading, grammar, and spelling units. The weather was great and the students worked hard. Some highlights from our week includes interviewing our Veteran's from the community. Thursday afternoon several Veterans from the area came to Sanborn Central and the 4th graders along with their 8th grade buddy interviewd them. The students were so excited, but the work isn't done yet!! We will now compile the information and begin preparing a presentation for the Veterans!! Another highlight from the week was Friday. In art we made greeting cards for the Adopt-A-Resident Program we will be doing with the Prairie View Care Center Residents. The 4th and 5th grade students made Happy Autumn cards which will be sent to the residents. We wrapped up the week working with the Pre-School students on the IPads. There are new apps on the IPADS so it was a lot of fun for both groups of kids! This week we will begin Unit 2 in our Reading series beginning with Baseball as our theme! Perfect time for this unit as the playoffs are underway!! Be sure your child is getting their homework done at night and staying caught up! We have lots of fun and exciting things to look forward to these next few weeks including 4-H Week, Homecoming Week, and of course our trip to pick out pumpkins! I hope you are all enjoying these beautiful fall weather!!
