Hello! I hope everyone had a nice long weekend! It was great meeting with all you parents. And, my PD Day on Friday was good!
This week is Fall Spirit Week. Below is themed days.
Monday – Mismatch Day! Students may come out of uniform wearing mismatched socks, shoes, or other fun mismatched clothing. The crazier, the better!
Tuesday – Crazy Hat Day! Students may wear a crazy or silly hat with their regular MHR uniform.
Wednesday – Red, White & Blue Day! In honor of Veterans Day, students may come out of uniform by wearing red, white, and blue to show their appreciation for the brave men and women who have served our country.
Thursday – Jersey Day! Students may come out of uniform wearing their favorite sports team jersey.
Friday – Twin with Your Grade! Students are encouraged to coordinate with their classmates and dress alike to show off their grade-level spirit!
*I am going to talk to the kids on Monday about what to wear for Friday. I was thinking that we all could wear a Snoopy shirt/clothes since it is our theme this year in our classroom. If you don't have anything, maybe borrow something? I don't want anyone to go out and buy anything new.
Monday, Nov. 9th
Reading
We will work in our Reader this week. We will read the two Time for Kids articles. We will work on identifying the main idea by using details. Tonight read both articles in the Reader and practice reading all the H.F. words on the green paper in the zippered bag.
Spelling
Go over the spelling pretest that we took last week. I made a copy of it and I am sending it home again. The spelling test will be on Friday.
Phonics
We will work on the r & s blends this week.
Math - EQ - How do we use strategies to add numbers?
We are starting Chapter 3 on addition strategies. The children will learn different strategies to help them add. Hopefully they will find one that works for them instead of using their fingers. Tonight complete the page on counting on from the greater number. Circle the greater number.
Religion
We will start Chapter 5 on our loving father.
Social Studies
We will be learning about maps. It goes with our Time for Kids articles in reading.
We will also learn about Veterans Day.
