What We Are Learning
Reading: This week we learned about character traits. We used adjectives to describe characters on
the inside and the outside.
Writing:
In writing this week we really focused on revising and editing our nonfiction
chapter books. I have been so impressed
with how much effort everyone has been using.
Ask your child what topic they have chosen to write about.
Math: This week in math we continued to learn about
attributes of 2D shapes. Ask your child about how to play the game Guess My
Rule.
Theme: Your child
learned about Veteran’s Day. We
incorporated math and writing while learning about this important holiday. We
created a soldier using only 2D shapes and brainstormed adjectives that
describe veterans.
Prize Box
Our prize box is pretty depleted these days. We are in desperate need of
individually wrapped candy, stickers, tattoos, small toys, etc. If you would be
willing to donate any of these items, your generosity would be GREATLY
appreciated!
Headphones Needed
We are very lucky to have 5 iPads in our classroom. Your child has access to these devices on a
daily bases. Because they are used so often, we are in need of some good
quality headphones that will be able to withstand being used so
frequently. If you would be willing to
donate some headphones to our classroom, your generosity would be GREATLY
appreciated!

Fall Weather
Fall weather is on
its way! Please make sure your child is
properly dressed for outside recess. We will go out every day as long as the weather is 32 degrees or above and the
wind-chill is 25 degrees or above. There is a strong wind that blows across the
playground. Your child needs to have a
jacket so they can enjoy recess comfortably!
