We had so much fun making apple pies! Thank you for all of your donations and a special thank you to all of our fabulous parent helpers
for ALL of your help baking our pies! It would not have happened without you! This week we will finish our unit on apples by making applesauce together! YAY :)
We are getting excited about our field trip on Tuesday, October 13th to Los Rios Ranch in Oak Glenn. Thank you to the parents who have volunteered to chaperone and for paying your $7 cash admission fee. If you haven’t yet turned in your $7 to chaperone, please do so ASAP. We need to get our head count to Los Rios Ranch by THIS FRIDAY. The chaperone money is paid directly to your class teacher and NOT to dollar a day. Thank you!
Also please do not forget to donate towards the field trip under Dollar A Day! Here is the link: Dollar A Day. For this field trip, we are asking for a $20 donation and unfortunately, we are unable to go without the proper funds. Thank you so much for your support!
What Are We Learning This Week?:
Sight Words: COME, AT, SAID.
Letter Team: CE/CI (we are learning that the letter C can make a soft sound when it is followed by an E or I like in "cent" and "city").
Word Family: -IN. Please help your child with word families of the week by asking them to create different words with the word family -in (bin, fin, tin, etc.)
Reading: We will continue to read books about apples and Johnny Appleseed and finish our author study on Mo Willems. Students will continue to read little books in class that include sight words and letter teams. Please keep practicing them at home! We all have "Reading Goals" that we are working on in class during our Read to Self and Word Work time. Many of our reading goals are to master our letters and sounds. Please keep working on this at home. Our classroom goal is 100% letters and sounds by November!
Writing: This week we will learn what "quotations" are. We will write a big book together about our silly monster friends and use "quotations" when they say something. This big book will be written using the sight words we have learned so far.
Math: We will continue working on 2D flat shapes and 3D solid shapes. We will explore the number of faces and vertices each 3D shape has and find out which shapes roll, slide and stack. We will also continue counting money, identify, order, write, and count numbers to 30, learn the days of the week, months of the year, how to read and extend patterns, and identify what number comes next. We will be creating a 3D Shape Museum as part of our Turn-In Homework this week. More information in Homework Section!
Leadership: This month and throughout September, our theme is "GRIT". We are teaching that grit is perseverance and passion for long-term goals.
