Hello parents and guardians!

We started off the day working on our family trees.  I worked individually with each student and managed to complete four family trees so far. They look great!

We will continue to work on our family trees tomorrow morning as well for our Unit of Inquiry Summative Assessment.  Each student will present their family tree on Thursday and next Tuesday. They will describe each picture and each family member.  I will help to read each family member on his or her family tree.

I will send home the family trees next Tuesday after each child has presented. We also read a story called Cat and Mouse by Ian Schoenherr.  After, we did a worksheet based on this book and counted the number of cats, mice, and clocks on the worksheet. They traced each number on that worksheet.

We also did some vowel tracing and practice on the letter E. Because many of them are new to using a pencil, tracing letters is taking some time, but they are getting much better with practice.

A friendly reminder that Friday is a PD Day. There will be no school on this day. There will also be no school on Monday, October 10 because it is Thanksgiving. 


HAVE A WONDERFUL NIGHT!!!!!!
