Happy Thursday!!

We started the day adding details to our ABC books. This was followed by calendar time and reporting our daily news. During reading groups the students worked on their sight words, letter sounds for /m/, /a/, /p/, /s/, reading, and listening.  Also during reading groups, students created the letter Pp with Play Dough, and made a sweet Halloween Page that we will get to take home tomorrow.  During math, the students worked on the number 8, as well as finding the hidden partners within the number 8 (eg. 5+3). Finally, we read the story The Lion and the Mouse and made it outside for a short recess. 

Information about Halloween tomorrow:

  1. Please send your child in their costume tomorrow, as we do not have time to change into them.    
  2. Don't forget tennis shoes for PE!
  3. Please apply any makeup or face painting at home.
  4. If you are a parent helper coming, please see the schedule below to be sure of the time.  Please arrive at least 5 minutes early to help with any set up (9:45 AM) (1:55 PM).  If you need to bring a sibling or younger child, that is great!  
  5. Please no weapons, blood, guts or scary costumes (G rated)!  :)
Can't wait!  It's going to be awesome!
