We are getting together with our Starfish friends to enjoy Halloween activities for the morning of October 30. We will be rotating through six different stations. The stations include festive art projects, card making, face painting, and games. Thank you to the parents who volunteered to help. We will look forward to seeing you at 8:45. Also, a big thank you to Mrs. Girard for organizing the refreshments for the afternoon.
We will move to "H" pals or "digraphs" in phonics this week. This is when an "h" sits next to another letter and they make one sound together (wh, sh, th, ch, ph). In Reader's Workshop, we have been using various reading "tools" or strategies to figure out "tricky words". We also continue to strengthen our retelling skills. This week, we will begin our study of "characters" in our books. We will also be starting Unit 3 in math where the focus is exploring number patterns and identifying odd and even numbers. In science, we will move from insects to our 8 legged friends...arachnids.
Thank you for your support. We appreciate the volunteering that is happening in our classroom and the support you are providing your child at home. Thank you for confirming your conference time with me. I am looking forward to meeting with each family in the next few weeks!
Happy Halloween!
