Halloween Howler notes are in your child's folder.  If you wish to attend, please return the form with money in your child's folder.

It was a beautiful afternoon for our students to spend some time outside observing fall to write descriptive words.  We will be using these words to write a  paragraph focusing on creating writing that the reader can visualize.  We read a great fall book this morning that demonstrated strategies such as similes and personification to help the reader paint a picture in their mind.

We started our math groups and the students have written concepts that they think they already understand and concepts that they are working on for addition and subtraction.  Ask your child what was one goal they have for math.  

Have a wonderful evening!!
