We had a fun-filled day! Thank you to Safina's mom for organizing such a fabulous costume party. Everything was perfect and we all enjoyed participating in the costume parade!
The children love to have partner reading time! They are learning how to "coach" each other when reading new texts by suggesting various reading strategies when their partners get stuck on a word. They are also encouraging them and giving them positive feedback! Thought you would want to see a sneak peek of partner reading time! The children loved bringing in all of their fall nature items today! Using hand lens, we took a close look at all of the items. Thanks for your help in making this a successful event. We had so many different types of leaves, pods, cones, nuts, etc. to look closely at!
Look who is our Student of the Week!! Lillian is proud of all the positive comments her friends wrote about her. We love the pictures she shared with us.
We have been studying various signs of fall. As scientists, the children have also been learning how their senses help them learn about the world around them. Today, we made delicious homemade applesauce. Using our sense of smell, we enjoyed the aroma of the apples cooking all day. Using our sense of taste, we enjoyed the yummy applesauce at the end of the day.
Our local fire fighters visited our school yesterday and spoke about fire safety! Mr. Larson demostrated how to use a fire extinguisher to our students. Today our school had a wonderful Cultural Arts program. Our presenter spoke about bullying. Speak to your child about what they learned about this important topic. Thanks to the PTO for sponsoring this informative program.
Thank you to all the family members who participated in our October Family Read! What a fabulous turn out! The children loved showing off their reading progress with all of you and also enjoyed listening to you read to them. We look forward to our November Family Read. Enjoy the snapshots below of our special time together.
Happy birthday, Harlin! Fun times celebrating with you! Our class enjoys going to the computer lab every Friday! We had wonderful discussions about fire safety. This week was Fire Prevention Week. Ask your child what he/she should do in case of a fire.
