Mr. Hauptmann’s Class Newsletter
November 13, 2012- Unit 2, Week 2
This
week we are reading “Coyote School News” by Joan Sandin. We will focus on some vocabulary words in
this story. It would be helpful if you
will reinforce the meaning of these words at home with your child. Also, on this newsletter you will find our
spelling words for the week. Please
practice these words at home as well.
The words in italics are our challenge spelling words. Let’s have a great week!
