*Happy Fall!*
*Starting this week is Spelling Homework. On Monday, students will receive their spelling list as well as a Spelling Tic Tac Toe. Students will have activities to choose from to practice their words two nights this week. New activities are shared each week to work on spelling words. If you find an activity that works well for your child but isn't on that week's list, please do it!! We will also practice these words in class this week. On Friday, we will have a spelling check-in.
*In math we will finish up Unit 1. We will check student's learning with a math assessment on Monday. Unit 2 will start on Tuesday. Our focuses this week are:
*counting on (starting at 5 to count up 3 more)
*turn around facts (1+2=3 so 2+1=3)
*2 Fisted Penny Addition (combos of 10)
*In Daily Five, we continue to practice Read to Self, Read to Someone and Work on Writing. We will introduce Work on Words this week. Students will learn strategies to practice their spelling words at school. We will begin reading groups this week during Read to Self.
*We will travel to the Cameron Senior Center on Tuesday, October 2nd (11:30-12:30) to visit the Westford Food Pantry. Our class will join Mrs. Mannone & Miss Dean's classes to survey the food pantry shelves. Students will write list of food and supplies the food pantry needs. A master list will be used to ask our school community to donate food and supplies. Please return permission slips to school. I will be in touch if you are chosen to chaperone the trip.
Looking Ahead:
October 8th- No School, Columbus Day
October 9th- No School, Professional Development for Teachers & Staff
