Our class has been working hard on our final project for our geography unit by creating regional maps of Michigan.  Each map includes non-fiction text features that linked our Language Arts unit on informational texts.

Dear families,

Our November PBIS celebration is almost here and we are celebrating with a few games of TURKEY BOWLING! The party will be celebrated on Wednesday, November 29th. Students will be bowling with a rubber bowling ball to try and knock down three “turkey pins”. They will also be challenged by trying to knock the pins over while bowling backwards, hopping on one foot, blindfolded, and other fun and silly tricks.

Students will participate in this event if they have demonstrated positive behavior throughout the month of November and have less than 5 card flips.

Thanks for your support,

The PBIS team

**In the spirit of the holidays and to keep our turkey theme, 5 turkeys will be donated to the Salvation Army Food Bank in Dearborn Heights funded by the Haigh Spirit committee.

Our class will be going to the book fair today (Tuesday) at 1:30, rather than at the previously scheduled time of 11:30.  We will be at the book fair from 1:30-1:55. Come join us!

We have been working on the geography of Michigan this term and the students have completed a fantastic group project!  Each team of students was tasked to complete two slides; one slide describes a body of water in Michigan and the other describes a landform.  The teams consisted of 2 students and each team was assigned a color block of slides.  Together, they have learned the natural characteristics found throughout our great state!
