We've been pretty busy this week and I know we all look forward to next week to spend time with family and friends.
Important information:
- Wednesday, November 22, is a 12:00 dismissal. Please plan accordingly and let me know if there are any changes. There is no extended day or In School Creative Arts that afternoon.
- If your child will be away before or after the Thanksgiving break, please let me know.
- Next Wednesday, please send your child in with a special snack and a not to them answering this question: "Why are you thankful for them?" Please do not tell them about the special snack and note...a little bit of a surprise. :)
3, 2, 1 things happening in room 250...
3 math skills we worked on were counting change when paying for items at a vegetable stand, reading bar graphs, and making our own tally charts and pictographs. *When you need to decide where to eat out for dinner...have you child ask each member of the family and make a chart of the results.
2 activities we completed during reading workshop were sorting books based on whether they were fiction or non-fiction and listening to a biography read aloud. *Next time you go to the library, ask your child who they'd like to learn about and look for a biography for them to read about that person. We always read better and are more engaged when it's a topic we're interested in!
1 special activity we had this week was a visit from author/illustrator Ralph Masiello. He was fantastic as always and the students really enjoyed the visit.
Here's a few pics below:
