Hello Everyone,


What a beautiful day we have had to start our week!


This week we will continue reading from our science books about
animal habitats and will be looking at text features.  This week
we are learning about water habitats.  In language we will continue
our work on plural nouns, and in spelling our spelling pattern
is double consonants and -ck.


In math we are concentrating on skip jumping using 1's, 5's, and 10's.
We will also look at a large collection of craft sticks and regroup
them into hundreds, tens, and ones using the splitting strategy
(first adding the tens, then the ones, and then adding the tens and
ones to get the total.)


This is Red Ribbon week (drug education.)  Our remaining themes
are as follows:
Tues: wear bright or mismatched socks "Sock it to drugs"\
Wed: team sports clothing "Team up against alcohol"
Thurs: wear red "Red Ribbon Week"
Fri: dress up during the fall parade "Say BOO to tobacco"


Our fall parade is Friday.  Students may bring a costume to
change into in the afternoon for the parade.  The parade
begins at 2:00 and our party will follow.  We hope you can
come and see us all dressed up!


If your child didn't finish their math work in class today, they
will have it in their Take Home folder to complete and return
tomorrow.


Also, if you would like to order any of your child's "Art to Remember"
and benefit the art department, the orders are due by
Wednesday, Oct. 26th.


Have a wonderful week!
Mrs. Kane
