October 3-7th

We have another busy week planned in Room 216!

*Reading: Our focus skill in reading this week is identifying and discussing reality vs. fantasy. We will read short passages each day and practice this skill. Our reading groups will be divided between learning/practicing word families and reading the story "Nights of the Pufflings" by Bruce McMillan.
*Math: In math, we are continuing to practice counting money. Later in the week, we will be adding quarters into our addition problems with pennies, dimes, and nickels.
*Readers Theater: The Readers' Theater play for the week is "The Little Red Hen." We did our first read through this morning and the students are all very excited about their new parts!
*Science/Social Studies: In Science, we are finishing up the body unit early this week and will begin a Presidential unit in Social Studies on Wednesday.

Dates to Remember:
-Monday, October 10th: Columbus Day, No School
-Tuesday, October 11th: Teacher Institute, No School

Have a great week!
