Good Morning,
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. It always amazes me how busy the weekends are this time of year. Today, we continued our study of narratives. Today I read the story Hiccups for Elephant by James Preller. This is another example of an author using the narrative elements to create a story. During Reader's Workshop, the students all shopped for new books for their Read To Self Bags. Today's specials were Music and PE.
Notes:
*There are new Reading Logs in your child's homework bag. Please make sure they're filled out nightly and the bags are returned each day.
*First graders should continue to play the math homework game they were given last week. The survey will be sent home a week form today.
*The students were asking if we were going to have any kind of party in December. Although, we are not going to have a "holiday party," I have decided that on the last day of school, before break, we will watch the original Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movie. I will provide popcorn for the kids and would like someone to provide cups and cider/juice. Please let me know if would be able to provide it.
That is all for now. I hope you have a wonderful week.
Peace,
Tommy
