Tuesday, Oct. 26th

Today was the fall festival for all kids who have had good behavior at school for the past month! We had fall candy, did a fall art project and watched the movie version of the picture book "The first snow in the woods."
In writing/reading today we talked about characters and charater traits.  We started developing some of our characters to use in a "creepy haunted house" story.  Hopefully the stories will be done by Friday for you to enjoy at home on Halloween!
In math we are using base-ten blocks to model different numbers up to 999.  Tomorrow we will be moving on and starting with geometry and building different shapes while learning about perimeter and area.

Friday Update: Halloween parade at 8:45, Halloween Party will take place between 10:15 and 11:15. Dismissal is at 11:30.

** I am in need of empty, clean peanut butter jars (or any plastic jar with a screw off top) for a math center.  If you have one that you are about to toss, pleae send it to me! Thanks!!
