News for last week (Nov 28th-Dec 2)!

Our blog posting has come to a screeching halt over the last couple of weeks because we're working on doing reading tests...this is one-on-one (teacher and student) and takes a long, long time!


This week we:

• learned how to find ten more and ten less on a number chart.
• figured out numbers before and after another number.
• (some of us) began Accelerated Math (more of us will soon!).
• read for 35 minutes each day independently, then more as a class and with partners!
• began telling true stories from our lives with a beginning, middle, and end, and important details.

Things to remember:

• The book fair is open in the Little Theater all week. If your child would like to bring money in to spend, that's fine...just no more than $20 please. :)
• We will NOT be doing a gift exchange this year. We'll have a little celebration for Christmas and make something fun instead.
• Christmas Break dates: (no school on these days) December 21-January 3.

Spelling words for next week:

• junk
• brothers
• float
• house
• crash
• trip
• shook
• snap
• with
• stop
