Snow and Other Exciting Things

What an exciting week with the first snow of the season!  We also had another great week of learning.
  • Math: We had our test on Wednesday, and started a new math unit.  We have talked about measuring with centimeters, and have looked at different shapes.  
  • Social Studies: This week we learned about wants/needs, goods/services, and scarcity.
  • Writing:  We have looked at the work of published authors to find things that we can work on in our own writing.  We worked on: dialogue, transition words, and writing a strong ending.
  • Reading:  We continued to talk about characters in our reading. 
Spelling words: way, find, use, may, water

Homework:   A math worksheet went home in folders this week.  Please be sure your child does both the homework and remembering side before returning it to school by Friday.

Book It!: Don't forget to keep filling in the November charts.  Reading 20 minutes a day and turning in the chart at the end of the month will earn your reader a personal pizza certificate.

Reminder:  With snowy weather already here (I can't believe it!), please be sure that your child is dressed appropriately. 

PE Can Drive:  The PE department is collecting canned goods to donate to families in need.  If you have any extra non-perishable items at home, please consider donating.
