*This week, the students welcomed a new fish into our classroom. Our fish is named Chicken and he is very happy to join our classroom. Students are taking turns feeding Chicken and reading to him during Read to Someone.
*In Math, we will practice using a calculator and work on change to more and change to less number stories.
**In Writing, we are writing "small moment" stories. Small moment stories are taking a big story like going on a trip and picking one small moment from the trip to write about. For example, the plane ride or your favorite ride at Disney.
*In Science, we will talk about what body parts help different animals to survive. We will observe our new fish, Chicken. We will also discuss how parents take care of their offspring.
*On Wednesday, we will have an all school community meeting to talk about the "i" in Spirit, Inclusion. Our class will lead community meeting by teaching the school a morning greeting we do often called Snowball.

*Last week I emailed volunteer times to everyone who sent back a volunteer form. If you think you signed up to volunteer in our class and you haven't heard from me, please send me an email.
*Our Harvest (Halloween) party is on Thursday, October 31st in the afternoon. We have 3 parties in first grade. I am asking each student to send in a $6 donation to help with the costs of the 3 parties. If you could send in the donation by the middle of next week, that would be helpful!
