What a FUN week last week! We celebrated Bennett's birthday with donuts (and lost a couple due to an ant attack! lol!). And we ended the week with the Fund Run. It really was a beautiful day and all the kids seemed to enjoy themselves. They were pretty stoked about the medals and water bottles, too!
This week is a short week due to MEA conferences for teachers. There will be no school on Thursday or Friday and Wednesday is an early dismissal at noon. There will be no lunch served on Wednesday, but your kiddo can bring a larger snack.
In reading and language this week we will be writing some Autumn Cinquin poems and working with adjectives. Also, students will be writing a paragraph about what they want to be when they grow up and why. It is fun for them to look back at these at the end of the year to see how much they have grown and changed. Hopefully we will have time to squeeze in a Fall perspective art project, too!
Since we are finishing up our read aloud, on Wednesday I plan on showing the students Because of Winn Dixie, so please make sure to send the permission slip back if you want your child to view the movie. It is one of my favorites!
In math this week we will review picture graphs, bar graphs, and frequency tables. We will also be problem solving with data and making line plots.
I leave you with some pictures of the Fund Run. Also, Magdalen lost her other front tooth, and I just had to snap a picture because it was too cute!

Happy Birthday to Bennett! Sounds like the ants just wanted to join in on the fun :0). Sounds like the Fund Run was a lot of FUN! Enjoy "Because of Winn Dixie". I know my kiddo can not wait to see it! - Tami
