The week of Sept. 20

 We have a busy week ahead!  

Picture Day is tomorrow!  We are only having individual pictures.  No class pictures.

Wednesday is Late Start Day!!  Doors open at 10:30,  school begins at 10:50  Same dismissal time.

Friday is Lap-a-thon.  Our class runs at 9:30-9:50.  You are welcome to come cheer us on, but only parents can come.  The course will be in the bus loop.

Parent-Teacher Conferences are next Wed. Sept. 29 and Thurs. Sept 30.  You have chosen either Zoom or In-Person and your time.  I will be sending a reminder for your day/time this week!  Please double check what you have down on your calendar.  

We had so much fun guessing all of the Community Helpers last week!  Thank you for helping your child find items for their helper!  Friday the kids had a blast building "Scott's Town" out of kleenex boxes!  See pictures below of both!

ELA/Social Studies--Our next unit is on Economics.  This week we will be talking about wants and needs.  Today we learned what "bartering" is and how people long ago traded items since money wasn't invented yet.

Phonics--short o.  I am sure noticing how well these kids are decoding cvc words after explicit teaching with our new Phonics textbook.  Continue to have your child reread the words on the worksheets that come home, as it is really helping them!  

Our new sight words are:  jump, see, and, stop 

(jump, stop are not in our Fry's sight word list, but are in our Phonics text)

Last week's words were:  my, play, like, the,  to, do, what, this

Sight words lists--I will be testing the children over sight words this week.  If your child passed list 1-25, I will move on to list 26-50.  

Math--Chapter 2 is on subtraction.  Today's lesson 3 was confusing for some as he/she wanted to add and put the big number last.  If you see the homework ws in your child's folder, please have them do it and return it. They need a little more practice with today's concept.  

***Look for homework on Wednesday this week over vertical subtraction with dominos.  Please make sure to have your child return it and make sure they are understanding the concept of subtraction.
