It was a short week, but a full one! We had an excellent turn out for Grandparent's Day! The kids and teachers really enjoyed having visitors and I think the Grandparents had a nice time too. Thanks to our Room Moms for organizing muffins and juice.
Animated Alphabet - This week we learned and drew two new Animated Alphabet characters Max the Ox and Annie Actress. Thanks for remembering to send pictures for our sound book. If you forgot send them on Monday, as I have not put those pages together yet.
Math - This week in math your students did something they have never done before: they took a MATH TEST!!! Wow, was that an experience. This test was given as per district guidelines and will be used to track their growth through-out the year. Next week we will get back into our lessons from our regular math series.
Literacy - This week we read some great books during read-aloud to enhance our Animated Alphabet lessons. Friday's read aloud was "The Giving Tree" by Shel Silverstein. It was a joy to share such a classic story with such a meaningful message.
Don't Forget:
* Picture Day is Monday!
* There was a School Celebration Sheet that went home today in folders that tells what students can wear next week for fun.
* Marathon Club starts Monday. Check out the details on the Langston Hughes Website. This is a great way to start healthy habits early in life!
***Book orders are due Monday. This is a fun way to get your students excited about reading, as well as build our classroom library.
For the week of September 20-24 I will be looking for volunteers to come in and help with an Apple Day. More details to come. Let me know if you are interested.
Thanks for all you do and have a great weekend.
