We're starting another week of learning and it is so close to fall break! We have to stay focused and then we'll be ready for a long, enjoyable break! This week we will work on reading, building, and breaking apart contractions. We will review reality/fantasy stories and how they are different. Our focus in Language will be proper nouns. We will constantly strive for reading with fluency, accuracy, and expression. This takes practice. In math we will begin money. It is very, very, very important that your child can identify coins and their value. We will jump right in to counting up the value of coins to a dollar. This can easily be practiced just by letting your child count change around the house, or by having them count out the money needed for purchases. Please continue to practice Rocket Math.

Thursday is Mr. Creasy Day. Mr. Creasy is retiring. He is veteran and an important part of our school. We will all need to wear red, white and blue on Thursday. Please feel free to make him a card.

Friday is Ms. Tate Day. Friday is her last day. You may write her notes, draw pictures, or just tell her how much we will miss her.

Friday is our behavior movie and ticket auction. Please, remember to send in auction items.

Let's have a great week!

Mrs. Walker
