Week of October 19-23

We have completed our first unit in our Scott Foresman reading series! We will begin reading from our anthologies this week, and we will begin with spelling words this week. The spelling words and word wall words will come home on Monday. We will have our spelling tests on Fridays.
In math, we have finished Unit 2. This week will be the second week of my teacher action research plan. We have many activities this week to help us learn our math facts! The students are doing a terrific job.
We are so excited this week to have author/illustrator Dar Hosta visit us on Wednesday! We have been enjoying her books all month. We teamed up with Mrs. Nemeth to recreate her book "I Love the Night". Check out our bulletin board if you get a chance.
On Friday we are looking forward to a visit from the local fire department. We can't wait to see all the fire equipment they will bring.
Have a great week!
