Autumn Party!!!

We are in disguise!!! Happy Halloween!






Now on to some November News!
November Word Wall List:
Week of Oct. 31 very, come, had, they
Week of Nov. 7 you, friend, we, us
Week of Nov. 14  your, if, them, thing
Week of Nov. 21  Review week of all word wall words
Week of Nov. 28  here, him, her, his, as

In reading groups, we are focusing on the use of multiple strategies to help us decode those tricky words when we are reading.  We will introduce the strategy of; Does that make sense.  When reading students are learning to stop and think about what they have just read...if it does not make sense they should reread and fix and words that they miscued.  Also, this is a great comprehension strategy to help students really think about the meaning of the story.

In Mathematics,  we continue in our unit of Making Shapes and Designing Quilts.  More resources for your Homework Activities pack will be coming home soon! 

Have a great weekend and safe Trick-or-Treating with your First Grader!!!
