As the holidays are near, we get even busier than usual. Above are some marble art pumpkins from our Halloween Party and some raccoons from our art center. It is always fun to share student work. They work so hard!
Next week is conference week. Remember, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday are early release days and Wednesday is Veteran's Day with no school. I am looking forward to seeing each of you again and sharing your child's progress with you.
Next week is also the Scholastic Book Fair in the Library. Our Librarian Ms. Lakin does a great job making the library match the theme of the book fair each year. Feel free to browse before or after your conference.
I am sending out a family project with homework this week. It is "Turkey Dressing". Basically, we are trying to disguise Tom the Turkey, so he doesn't get gobbled up on Thanksgiving Day. Please help your child out. I have a directions sheet and examples on the back of the directions sheet. I have included "Tom" and also a piece of construction paper to glue him to. You don't have to use the construction paper if you have something you would rather use.
We have been working with beginning sounds and rhyming sounds and are even starting to learn specifically about vowels. In Zoo Phonics we call these "The Hardest Workers". We have been learning about nocturnal animals too. While talking about bats we even had a discussion about mammals. We are learning so much!
See you next week.
