Week of Sept 12-Sept 16

We had a great Friday with all the grandparents who came for lunch last week! It was so exciting to see all the smiling faces.

What we are learning this week

Social Studies: Its freedom week and we are discussing the past events of September 11 and how our country became what it is today.

Science: Matter and how it can change from one state to another.

Math: Working with patterns on a 100 board and introducing addition strategies. We will be working a lot on addition and subtraction in the next few weeks. It would be great to practice simple facts at home to help your child succeed.

Language Arts:  Inferencing and writing personal narratives.

Reminders: **If you have not yet signed up for a parent conference, please complete the form on the left. Times are filling up quickly! Mark your calendar for October 10th.**

Here is a sample of what how we made Adobe bricks last week.
