Week of October 31, 2016

During our literacy block we are reading stories and talking about characters, setting, beginning, middle and end.  In our guided reading groups we are working at looking at the beginning sound and pictures to help us read unknown words.

We are continuing to work on writing a good sentence beginning with an upper case letter and ending with a punctuation mark.

In math we are meeting with students and asking them to identify numbers, count, write numbers, identify shapes, compare numbers etc.

We continue to work on fall projects and we will be spending time learning about the first Thanksgiving and what Thanksgiving means to us today.

Our letters/words of the week are:  "i", "j" "in" "on".

REMINDERS
The Story Book Character parade will be at 2:00.

Please remember to sign and return homework packets by Friday.  Homework is important to reinforce what we are working on in the classroom and to teach responsibility.

Below are some pictures of students doing morning work.
