What We Are Learning:

LA: We are continuing with “Who Works Here”. We are going over common nouns and identifying if they are a person, place, or thing. We will be discussing the difference between fiction and informational text. 

Math: Continue with addition.

Spelling: No spelling words this week due to the 3 day week.

AR: New AR goals are coming home this week. Remember your child can test on their library book in addition to the book they get from the classroom.

Fall Festival:

You received information in your child’s folder last week about the upcoming Fall Festival.  If you or a family member knows of a business that would be willing to donate goods or services for the Silent Auction please send me a note with your name, the item/service you would like to donate, and a contact number.   All contributions are tax deductible.  This is a great opportunity to advertise your business while showing support for our school!
