Dear Parents,
It's hard to believe that it is almost October and Fall Festival is only a few days away!
I am so grateful to all the parents that have signed up to volunteer and/or have given a donation towards our Fall Festival - thank you!
If you have not signed up please note that we are still seeking donations for our 'Pamper Me' and 'Family Fun' baskets.
Spelling
This week our spelling words end in similar sounds: an, tan, pan, Dan, top, pin, tin, on, sit, and ship.
- Dan can sit.
- Sit on top.
Math
We are continuing to practice skip counting by 2’s, 5’s and 10’s in math. We are counting to 120 and building number combinations. www.abcya.com is a wonderful website that reinforces the lessons and skills we are learning in class.
Science
In science, we will discuss technology. This includes engineers, problem solving, and identifying materials in an object; a house has a roof, brick, wood or a bike has wheels, pedals, handle bars...
Exploring Solids, Liquids, and Gas
Parent Teacher Conferences
Please check your child's folder for a conference sign up form.
I hope to see you Saturday at Fall Festival! Come by our booth and say hello!!
