Weeek of October 24-28

This week we will begin Unit 2 of our reading series.  We will also continue to discuss time and money in math class.  We are also beginning our after school program on October 24th.  If you feel that your student would benefit from after school then let me know and I will sign them up and get the proper paper work sent home.  Our Halloween party will be on Monday, October 31st starting at 12:30.  If you would like to volunteer then just come on down that day.  Mrs. Plowman is in charge of the festivities.  Red Ribbon week will begin Monday October 31st and last until November 4th.  Below you will find a list of concepts being discussed in class.

Reading- Main Idea and Details

October 18-21

This week we will not have a weekly reading, grammar, or spelling test.  Instead we will be using several books to help students with sequencing, character traits, and comprehension.  We will begin using our Math books this week and begin looking at telling time, elapsed time, and counting money.  I will be out of the classroom on Wednesday all day and Friday afternoon for district meetings.  We will begin our afterschool program on Monday, October 24th starting at 3 and ending at 4.  Letters were sent home to those students who were recommended.  I hope everyone has a wonderful week.
