Upcoming Events for October 23rd-37th

Learning Objectives

• Reading: We will be practicing retelling a fiction story. Students will describe what happened in the beginning, middle, and end of the story.
• Writing: We will be researching facts about pumpkins and bats. We will write informational "teaching books" about pumpkins and bats.  We are working on writing sentences with capital letters, spaces between words, and ending marks. I encourage students to be fearless spellers. This means they sound out unknown words or look to the Word Wall for assistance. 
• Math: We will continue working on addition and subtraction story problems. We will have some with missing totals and some with missing addends. 
• Science: Our class will rotate through to each first grade teacher to learn about different fall topics (spiders, bats, scarecrows, pumpkins, and skeletons).
• Character:  Anti-Bullying lessons

1.) Math Homework: Workbook pages 83-92

2.) Have your child read the leveled books that are sent home (please return these the NEXT day because we need them for our reading group)

3.) Make 2nd Nine Weeks Sight Word flash cards
