This Week

Parents,
I hope everyone had a relaxing and fun Fall Break!
Now back to school...! :)

We will begin this week with a field trip on Tuesday to the Funk Heritage Museum to learn more about our native Americans that settled here many years ago. PLEASE remember to send your child a snack and water bottle to eat safely in the car on the way there. Also, if you want your child to shop at the museum, please send no more than $10 in a Ziploc bag with their name on it. In a separate bag send the money for their Chick-fa-la lunch if your child is buying, if not send a lunch box.

This week in math we will start reviewing 2 digit SUBTRACTION with regrouping.
We will continue working on Parts of Speech in Language Arts: Nouns, Verbs and Adjectives, with a SWYK on Friday. No new fictional story this week.

In my Reading class, I will introduce and review the soft g with Gentle Cindy.
