Happy Party Day...

Here are a few photos, but sadly somehow I missed a couple of students! Everything is updated for the week.  Don't forget to send in your Parent-Teacher Conference slips so we can get everyone scheduled!  Thanks!

Pumpkins, Apples, Rocks, and Numbers . . .

Hi All,

I hope everyone had a great weekend of fun fall excursions!  I heard several students mention Applejack Festival and Vala's Pumpkin Patch for weekend plans!  It was definitely a perfect "fall weather" weekend for both of those places.

Just a quick reminder to have your child bring in a rock TOMORROW!!  Any 'ol rock will do!  Can't wait to see what they find :-)

For fun, here are some quick pictures from our math time this week.  We spent a couple of days on number strings in our addition unit and strengthening our number sense knowledge.








Also, we worked on including our "5 Senses" in our writing and trying to think of them as "5 Details" just to help us in adding feelings and details in our small moment stories.

Lastly, we did a fun activity with some different feeling words - here are a few of the students but everyone will be coming home with their photo and feeling word :)
 

 
 



Enjoy!

Short Week. . .

Hi All,

Even though it was a short week, we have definitely been busy!  We had our first family circles this week on Thursday, plus some extra projects for September 11th and Grandparents Day on Sunday, September 13th!  Of course, as always check out the newsletter for our specific daily activities!

We will have our spelling test on Friday the 18th and then a review test on our 2nd Grade Priority Words the following Friday (9/25).  The spelling lists are all updated - click the link on the left to see the words.

Lastly, there was a permission slip for our walking field trip to downtown Gretna on Friday September 18th in your child's planner, please sign and return as soon as possible!

Thanks,

Mrs. Jones
