November 24-25
We have a two day week this week. We will use this week to review skills over all subject areas as well as do some fun "crafty" projects. We do not have school Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday. Safe travels and have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. I am thankful for all your wonderful children and your support for them and their education. Thanks.

Reading
We will be reading about animal homes as we start our new unit this week. Monday we will be interacting with the Three Little Pigs because the students will be going on the Story Bus tomorrow. Students will be exposed to a non-fiction text and learn the different parts. (table of contents, glossary, heading, etc.)
Phonics
We will be focusing on letters Hh and Ll this week.
Writing
Students will write about things they see. We will read I Went Walking to help get ideas. We will also do a nature/school walk to help develop ideas for writing what we see.
Math
Students will learn to count on using their fingers, show the meaning of same and more (how much more), and be introduced to the math vocabulary word: fewer.
Science
Students will learn about, discuss, and compare animal homes. We will begin to talk about migration and hibernation while identifying and comparing animals winter preparations.
Social Studies
The school counselor will be joining us to teach students the difference between small and big problems.

Novemeber 10-14
This week there is no school on Tuesday (Veterans' Day) or Wednesday (report card pick-up). Please email me if you were unable to sign-up for a time to conference with me and pick-up your child's report card.
Since this week only has three school days we will not be having a book of the week. Instead, we will be reading books focusing on needs vs. wants. That will also be our social studies focus for the next couple of weeks. In math we will continue composing and decomposing numbers. For writing, we will be reviewing skills from first quarter.

Reading
We are reading two fun books this week. Abuela and How to Babysit Grandpa. We will be exploring the two books and reviewing the parts of a book, author, illustrator, characters and setting.
Phonics
We are learning the letter O this week.
Writing
The students will hear a book all about colors and then draw and label objects that are different colors. Students should be labeling illustrations they make when drawing at home.
Math
We will be learning how to compose and decompose numbers to ten. (i.e. 5 is 3 and 2. 2 and 3 is 5)
We will also be doing some shape review.
Social Studies
We will be discussing making good choices and reviewing how to use the "power up" station and why we have it.
We will also be discussing families and how families are different since we are reading two books about grandparents.
Announcements
The end of the quarter is Thursday! There is no school for the students on Friday!
