Thank you to the families of the following students for either bringing in a pumpkin or buying items for our Halloween party:  Serenity, Jayden, Emma, Azailyah, Ronnie, Eric, Adel, and Landin.  
The students dissected 5 pumpkins.  The students sorted the pulp from the seeds and measured the circumference of each pumpkin.  Also, we graphed the size of each pumpkin.  Please look on my blog for pictures.  
Today in your student’s folder there is information regarding your student.  Please look over the following assessments.  Please reinforce any highlighted areas.  Please continue to work with your student at home.  It really does make a significant difference.
