Week of November 6-10, 2017

Weekly Newsletter for November 6-10, 2017

In Reading, we will continue with our story, “A Fox and a Kit.”  We are discussing the main idea and supporting details of the story.  We have also talked about how wild animals take care of their babies!  Our test for this story will be Tuesday, November 7^th.  Our spelling test for inflected endings –s and –ing will also be Tuesday, November 7^th! 

            In Math, we are continuing to work on our addition and subtraction facts to 12!  We also learned that addition and subtraction sentences can be written, “side to side OR up and down.”  We are still practicing our vocabulary words such as: sum, difference, plus sign, minus sign, equals, doubles fact, and near doubles. 

            Last week, our class read the story, Turkey Trouble, by Wendi Silvano.  I sent home a note explaining our Turkey in disguise project and writing!  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask!  The kiddos seem very excited about this project!  J  All turkeys and clues are due by Friday, November 10^th.  However, you can always send them in throughout the week! 

*A friendly reminder: As of November 3^rd (Daylight Savings) shorts are no longer allowed to be worn!  As the weather continues to cool off, please be sure to dress accordingly.  We will be going outside for recess as much as possible!  J
