Last week we finished filling out our passport on the continent of North America. We got the i-pad cart and did an interactive nearpod lesson on the phases of the moon and we wrote animal reports. This week is Red Ribbon Week: Tuesday is Twin Day, Wednesday is Red Day, Thursday is Crazy Hair and Sock Day, Thursday is Team Jersey or Superhero Day and Friday is Pajama Day. We should have a fun week! For part of our Halloween Day fun in math we will be sorting pumpkin seeds.  In order to do this I need about 5 large bags of pumpkin seeds. If you can will you please save, wash and dry the seeds from your pumpkins when you carve them. I can start collecting them this week in order for activity to work.

We have been working hard on our Monster Stories for Halloween. We started our next unit in math on skip counting and have been working on fluency & finding details in reading.  We had our feast to finish off our study of United States as we learn how we fit on to the map of the world. Next we will move on to our first continent- North America. The students have enjoyed bringing back their pictures of the moon each night. We are watching to see if the moon is waxing larger.  Remember to sign up for Parent Teacher Conferences. I would love to meet with each of you.
