Update October 30th

*This Monday, October 31st at 1:30pm, is our Harvest Party.  Thank you to the parent volunteers and parents that have signed up to donate items for the party! Students may wear costumes in school only during the Harvest Party.  The costumes should be brought to school in a bag with your child's name on it.  No face paint, masks or weapons will be allowed.  **In addition, students are welcome to wear "Crazy Hats" to school all day tomorrow.  Hats do not have to be crazy, they can just be hats!  Whatever works for your family.

*In Math, we will practice counting on the number line, counting to add/subtract and skip counting.

*In Social Studies, we will continue to focus on goods and services.  Businesses that provide goods sell items that are made or grown.  Businesses that supply services provide work that someone does for someone else.  This person is usually specially trained.  This week, we will listen to members of our community that provide goods and services.  The students will work with a partner to decide whether the person provides good or a service.  We will also discuss wants and needs.

*In comprehension, we will continue to learn about Non-Fiction features.  Students will begin writing their own Non-Fiction book: All About Me

*Star of the Week: I will be the first Star of the Week in our class.  On Friday, I will share personal photos, mementos and some of my favorite things with the class.  Each Friday we will choose a new Star of the Week.  Every student will have a chance to share.  When your child is chosen, you will receive a letter with information and a poster for your child to fill out.  My hope is for everyone to have their own special time to share a little bit about themselves.

*Thank you for sending in healthy snacks each day! The class gets a nice recharge halfway through our mornings!

Looking Ahead:
Tuesday, November 8th- No School
Friday, November 11th- No School
