Seussical was a great show. Thank you to OS and TB's moms for chaperoning on our first trip.
Picture retakes are on Monday.
Please send in the field trip money for next month's Maritime Center trip.
Last week I emailed the December Conference schedule. Please let me know if you need a date or time change. I will resend this as the date gets closer.
Reading Workshop: We will continue to look for patterns in books. It has been interesting to notice how a single book can have a lot of patterns. I hope my first graders are noticing and explaining a pattern they find in their home reading. Wednesday night's homework is all about patterns.
Writing Workshop: We are continuing to write descriptions called "snapshots". Brainstorming adjectives will be a big part of this unit.
Phonics/Spelling: Short vowel review: fast, went, this, stop, jump
Math: We will be (hopefully) finishing Topic 3 in math which is on counting coins, telling time to the hour and an introduction to measurement. We will have an assessment on Friday.
