Math: We will continue to work on subtraction this week. These kids are really good! Thanks for all the help from home!
Language: We will be working with the word family -uck this week. We will have words from this word family on our dictation test Friday.
Our Word Wall Words for this week are: there, up, out, them, here. Please practice these words with your child so they can read them automatically. They will be part of our dictation test on Friday.
Character Trait: This month, our character trait is Caring. I will be looking for children showing this trait and giving them a bone. They can trade this bone for a treat from Mrs. Rusher, then it goes into a drawing for some great prizes at our next Top Dog Assembly. Please encourage your child to be caring at home, too.
Book-it: Keep working on the November list. Thanks for helping your child earn a free pizza!
Brrr: This is just a reminder that we go outside for recess every day unless it is less than 10 degrees or raining. Your child will not be allowed to stay inside unless they have a note from you. Please make sure they are dressed appropriately for the weather. It would be a good idea for them them to bring a coat or jacket every day.
Snacks: Thanks for the snacks! We really needed them!
Thunder Reading Program: On Friday I sent home a blue bookmark for your child to write down books they have read at home. These can be the same books you write on their "Book-it" list. Please send the bookmark back when it is full and I will sign it and let you turn it in for a free ticket to a Thunder hockey game!
School Store: We will be shopping with our bucks on Thursday. Please remind your child to bring all their bucks to school on that day.
Happy Thanksgiving: Remember that we do not have school on Wednesday through Friday, November 26-28 because of Thanksgiving Break. Please enjoy this time with your family and know how thankful I am for such a great class. Thank you for sharing your wonderful child with me!
