It's a busy week ahead in Room 137 as we learn about Fire Prevention and safety. We have a special program on Monday morning. Last week, for our Inquiry Unit, we learned about living and nonliving things as we cut pictures from magazines for our class poster. We also sponge painted autumn trees which are living things.
The children enjoyed labeling their trees and writing a caption for them. We talked about labels and captions as being important nonfiction features in nonfiction books. We continue our study of living and nonliving things and nonfiction features as we learn about farm animals as we prepare to go to the farm.
* Please return your farm permission slips and money promptly. They were due on Friday!
We continue to work on building stamina while reading to self and with a buddy with a goal of up to 12 minutes.
In Math, we are working on writing numbers, counting up from a given number, comparing numbers, and writing number sentences. Please practice these concepts at home too!
* There will be NO SPARC on Thursday due to conferences.
* Conferences are this Thursday October 11.... 3:30 to 8:00pm. Please be on time.
* Each conference will be 15 minutes to accommodate each parent. Please have any questions ready!
I look forward to seeing all of you. Your child is welcome to attend conferences!
