A Great Week

Homework starts this week!  Please check your child's folder this afternoon!

Reading: We have been talking about characters, settings, and important events when we read books.  Ask your child to sing the character and setting song!  On Thursday the kids took a little assessment so I could track our progress with this common core standard.  They did a great job.  I will share those with you at conferences.

Writing:  During writing time I am encouraging the students to write down the sounds they hear in the words they want to write.  We also count the number of words in our sentences.  I am already seeing a lot of progress in their writing.

Math:  During math we continue to talk about shapes and their attributes.  We are counting sides and corners and using math words to describe how shapes are the same or different.

Theme:  We will learn a lot about apples this month.  Keep an eye on the blog to hear more about how you can help with this!

Conferences:  If you have not already checked out our conference schedule, please look at it soon.  If you signed up for a time on curriculum night then you are all set.  Just check to confirm I have the correct time.  If you did not sign up for conferences, please look at the time I assigned you.

Upcoming Dates:
No School:  October 9th and October 12th
Fun Run:  October 21st
Half Day for Conferences:  October 22 and 23
