October 6th, 2025 Week #9
"My Friends"
This week we will learn with a thematic focus of "friends". We will discuss how friends are alike and how they are different. Students will learn how to make and, best of all, how to keep friends.
Friends are classmates, family members, neighbors, and pets that you enjoy being around.
Being loyal means to keep promises and do what you say.
Friends can communicate in many ways even if they live far apart.
"On The Farm"
We will pretend that we are on a farm for many of our lessons this week. We will enjoy learning many aspects of a farm. Students will enjoy various books read aloud with a "farm" theme.
