Also the Scholastic Book Fair is open.
We have Officer Friendly visiting on Monday to talk about Halloween safety.
We are also making Pirate Hats with our kindergarten buddy class on Tuesday.
In literacy, we are starting our next unit called Information Experts. We will be reading and learning about non-fiction books.
In math, we are starting a new unit as well. Ask your child who their math teacher is for this unit. We will be focusing on multiplication and division.
We will not have a spelling test this week, but your child will bring home the words to practice. The test will be on Wednesday, November 2. The high frequency words to work on are: important, form, food, keep.
We are working on publishing one personal narrative of your child's choice. We will have our writing celebration on Monday, Oct. 31. The students will share their writing in small groups.
I look forward to meeting with all of you on Wednesday or Thursday. If you can't make the time that you are scheduled, please call me or the office.
