Dear Students and Families, 

     Wow! It has been a long time since I have posted! Things are finally starting to slow down, with all of the excitement of a newborn and all :)  My husband and I have finally got the hang of parenthood and love our new little boy more than words can say!  Thank you all for your support while I was out and the warm welcomes when I returned.  I hope that you all have had a FANTASTIC Thanksgiving break, I know that I have!  When we return to school on Monday, we will be working hard to get as much learning in before yet another holiday break.  We will be reading stories, writing stories/poems/journal entries/etc., visiting the library, and more! We will still be focusing on nonfiction (things that are real or actually happened).  Take a look around at how much nonfiction you read or watch on TV everyday!  Many stories or articles in magazines, newspapers, and some television shows such as the news are nonfiction.  We also will be doing many fun holiday activities which I will be posting more information on as the days pass.  I look forward to a wonderful December! Please feel free to post a comment about what you and your family did over the Thanksgiving holiday! I'd love to read them!

                                                                                                    Joyfully, 

                                                                                                            Mrs. Boehme
