| The students did a wonderful job on their Celebrate Me! projects. They were very creative and we learned a lot about each other. After presenting the project to the class and asking for questions or comments, we displayed them in the hall for everyone to see. They will be coming back home in a few weeks. Enjoy the creativity on these photos! |

| Locker Art: Here are some of the Fractured Pumpkins that the students created. Each of them have such different personalities! |

| We are so excited to have started being reading buddies with Mrs. Shipley's pre-K students. A small group of children went down to read to their buddies this week. The pre-K students had a book that they wrote and wanted to read to us as well. Next month a different group of children will go down to share this special time with the class. |
We fit a lot of other activities into our week as well. We continue to work on identifying the main idea and details in a story. The concept of "main idea" is a difficult one.
We had a great time on our field trip to the CFA. I hope your child discussed the musical with you when he/she got home. I was very proud of how well behaved our group was.
We started writing our second narrative this week by using a Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How graphic organizer. We are writing about a tradition in our families. Please discuss with your child what tradition he/she is writing and interesting details that could be added to the writing. We hope to publish the writing in a book. You will get more information about that later.
In Math we continued to work on two step word problems and fact families. Everyone seems to have a good handle on related facts. Next week we will work on skip counting.
Next week we will have Fire Prevention Day on Tuesday. Firemen come in and teach us what to do in case of a fire in our homes.
Important Dates:
10/13- Columbus Day- No School
10/17- Conference Day- 1/2 Day
Have a lovely, long weekend. I hope you can get out and enjoy the Fall colors!
