I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving Break! We only have a few weeks until the winter holiday, so lots of learning and hard work will take place in that time!
As you fill out your reading logs, you can fill out the Schlitterbahn Reading paper too.
Remember to fill out notecards for books finished, so that they count in our 40 Book Challenge.
We will have our lunch together on Friday for completing the "first in a series". Make sure you complete a notecard for that too!
