Reading

We have been rotating through the components of Daily 5.  I have been meeting with groups of kids working on reading strategies.

Each child will have a calendar in their Book Bag to write down the assignment for reading that night.  I usually recommend 15 minutes of reading per night. 

Math


In math, students will be thinking about addition number sentences and joining numbers together. We will also talk about turn-arounds(fact families).

Reminders


It is getting colder outside!  Please make sure your child has the appropriate attire for recess time.

Halloween Carnival October 25 - 3:00-5:00


Fall Party
Fall is filled with many different traditions and holidays.  Friday, October 31st is Halloween.  We are planning some learning centers and a very short party in the afternoon.  Students may bring in a “trick or treating” snack for the class, if they would like to.  Students do not have to bring something.  Students may bring their costume and change into it, but only during the party.  The costumes should be non-violent and safe to wear.  We will play some fun Fall activities during our party as well.

If you would not like your child to participate in this party, please let me know! Thanks!
