• November Reading Challenge Due November 30th
• Please remember to complete your weekly COVID questionnaire. 

In Reading we will finish our novel study on Esperanza Rising by Pam Munoz Ryan. The students will write a detailed description of how the main character, Esperanza, changed in the book. They will be asked to use specific details from the book as evidence of this character’s transformation. In addition, they will consider things such as her attitude and appearance in the beginning, middle, and end of the story. Lastly they will include at least two quotes in their writing.

***Remember our Monthly Reading Challenge is Due Monday, November 30th, but can be handed in as soon as it is completed.**

This week we will begin learning about early Native Americans of the Southwest. We fill focus on the Hohokam, the Anasazi, and the Moundbuilders. 

In Religion we are watching the movie Facing the Giants. Here is a brief overview of the movie:

"Grant Taylor, a Christian high-school football coach (Alex Kendrick), gets some very bad news. Besides his and his wife's (Shannen Fields) problems having a child, he faces the attempt of local parents to force the school to replace him. His team, the Shiloh Eagles, has never had a winning season in the six years that he has coached the boys. Following a visitor's message, Grant tries to inspire his team to use faith to conquer fear and opposing teams." 

As we watch the movie, the students are answering reflection questions about how our faith can help them in their lives, whether they are struggling with something or just in their every day to day life. 

Wishing you and your family a
Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving!
