December 7th-11th

Hello Families,

The annual Christmas Baskets are being filled and we are counting on your generosity to help provide D.E.S. families in need with a little extra this holiday season.

This week and next there will be less homework as we spend time on special holiday activities and outings. You will find details in the newsletter sent to your and your child's email.

This week, please remember there is a strike day this Wednesday. Hopefully it will be the last!

This week's assignments

Math: working with fractions, students will continue review in JUMP math at home and will be working on new skills and problem solving in class.

Music/response: students need to complete a response on the song of their choice from Annie  for next Monday.

Social Science: the summative text on the first module will come home this week, along with the Places in Time text for the next unit (to be read over the next month).

Science: students should read the book "Energy Sources: Pros and Cons" for Friday

Music/Concert Preparation: students should memorize the lyrics to the songs we will be performing next week.

Have a wonderful week!
