Boo!

Be on the lookout for Progress Reports.  You may find more detailed information by signing in to your Mastery Connect.  Also, I am looking forward to speaking with you on Tuesday night for Parent/Teacher Conferences.  

Thanks go out to the parent volunteers that helped us construct our 3D Haunted Houses.  We still lack the finishing touches, but they look pretty spooktacular!  

New sight words have been added, so be sure to practice those, in addition to the ones still not mastered.  You may also want to check out Lexia with your child at home.  It is a great online resource for the kids.  We have had a lot of kiddos level up already.  YAY!

What's that Smell?

This past week, we tackled the 5 senses.  Our smell jars were a hit.  The bad smells sure did get a reaction!

Next week, we will begin our unit of study on plants and animals.  If you have any spare shoe boxes, we would love to take them off your hands.  Our table teams will be creating habitats while taking into consideration animal and plant adaptations.  Students will also be conducting a little research on our Chromebooks to help them pick out the perfect additions to their habitat. I cannot wait to see what they have created!
