Families,

Here is a look at the upcoming week. We are getting closer to the end of October!

Important Dates/Reminders:

• Change Wars officially begin Monday! Bring in any loose change you have that will go to books for kids who do not have access to them. The class that brings the most change in will get to KEEP their change to buy books for their classroom. This would be awesome for us :).
• The Turkey Trot is Tuesday, October 24th. See you there!
• Conference forms are coming home today. Please return yours by Monday, October 30th to confirm your time and day.
• Mark your calendars–conferences are November 6th, 8th, and 9th which is the same week as our book fair!
• Our Halloween party will be Tuesday, October 31st from 12-1. An additional note will be coming home closer to the day. The school Halloween parade will be from 2-2:30.
• Keep working on Xtra Math at home with your child! This will help them with accuracy and fluency.

Reading: We will keep reviewing strategies like Sensey the Skunk and Flippy the Dolphin. We will also review “Bossy E” and how to count the syllables in a word.

Writing: We will make sure our stories make sense, review 5 star sentences, and learn how to use carets in our writing.

Math: We will finish up unit 2, review all of our strategies, and take our test on Thursday.

Spelling: Our spelling words are: he, for, was, play.

Have a great weekend,

Miss Reisdorff
