Happy Friday!



We had such a great time yesterday at the Weinberg Center! The kids really enjoyed the performance and were a very respectful audience. Thanks to the parents who got to come with us... I hope you enjoyed yourselves!



Now we're looking forward to our Fall Festival Celebration - the day will start our with our Pumpkin Math. I have three parents so far - the more help, the better! The rest of the day will be spent reading and writing about Fall and pumpkins. At 2:30 our celebration will begin! Thanks to all who have helped - especially Tina Nguyenkhoa for putting it all together.



I need to do another call out for donations for our Silent Auction basket. Please be sure to read the reminder! Thanks to Stephanie Tucker for handling this for us!



Here's what we'll be doing this week:



Language Arts: We'll be discussing folktales. This unit is so fun - lots of great, old stories to read and share! Our focus during these stories will be character development and sequencing.



Math: My math class will be finishing up line plots, measuring, and graphing and will start some probability.



Science: Next week will be our last week of working with our "mystery" powders. Hopefully, by Friday, the kids will have discovered what all five are. Try back later if there are no pictures with this post - I'm trying to get some on here from Science!



Writing: Our focus is still Ideas and Organization. I'm really trying to get some grammar in there, too. Please be sure to check your child's homework for good sentences!



Word Study: We will be working with different silent letters.



Have a wonderful weekend!
