Hello and welcome back! I hope you all had a nice and relaxing holiday weekend! It is so nice to have a couple days to rejuvenate before the rush of our last three weeks before our winter break! This week we will be starting a new theme in our Language Arts series called "On the Farm" and focusing on the letter "Ii" and our newly added sight word "come." We will also be reading some new stories and focusing more on comprehension and making inferences in the stories. We will also be learning some new vocabulary words: squabble, mischief, uproar, tend, soggy & wobble.
In math we will continue to talk and learn about different 3 dimensional geometric figures and even create a few of our own!

The coming week will be busy as we focus on reviewing letters and letter sounds in language arts along with learning a new sight word and blending letter sounds to make words!
In math, we will continue to concentrate on writing the numbers 0-10 correctly. If you are working on these at home, here are the rhymes we have been using to help us remember and the students love saying them!
0 - Round and round just like an "o," now you've make the number zero!
1 - Start at the top and down you run. That's the way you make a one.
2 - Make a candy cane and give it a shoe. That's the way you make a two.
3 - Around a tree, around a tree. That's the way you make a three.
4 - Down and across and slice through the door. That is how you make a four.
5 - Short neck, belly fat. Mr. Five wears a hat.
6 - Make a "C" then in you go. Now you've made a six you know.
7 - Across the sky and down from heaven. That's the way you make a seven.
8 - Make an "S" and then don't wait. Go back up and make an eight.
9 - Make a circle, then add a line. That's the way you make a nine.

I look forward to meeting with everyone for conferences this week. Please be sure to check your child's backpack on Tuesday evening - I will be sending their report cards home, so you can be sure to see them and bring any questions you have to our conference.
If you need a reminder on your conference day and time, please feel free to call or e-mail me.
Thanks!

Letter we are working on: this week we are not working on one particular letter, but practicing how to blend letters to make words!

Welcome back after a fun and festive Halloween weekend! Our party last Friday was a great success - fun was had by all! I will try and post party pictures very soon.
This week will bring another exciting end to the week - Grandfriends Day! This is a day to celebrate those special adult friends in our lives. Parents, if you have not returned the yellow permission sheet to me for Grandfriends Day, please do so by Thursday of this week, thank you!
Also, our BOOK FAIR in the media center is going on all week long! Please stop in - there are some great books with low prices (you can do some early Holiday shopping!) Because the book fair is going on, we will not be having our weekly media class on Wed. so please feel free to keep your library book one extra week.
This week I will also begin doing some assessing because report cards will be coming home soon! (in just a couple of weeks!)
Let's have a great week!
