September 30th Newsletter


Dear Parents and Guardians,
Our topic this week in reading will be all about sports and teamwork.  We will be talking about books that give information about a specific topic.  The sounds we are focusing on this week are nd, nk, nt, and st.  Our chunk of the week this week will be –et as in met.

Thank you for sending in binders.  The kids are enjoying new
poems each week.  We use them to help practice our reading fluency.

This week we will be working on counting up and back on a number grid, learning our telephone numbers, and practicing single digit addition.  Watch for the Unit 2 Family Letter to come home this week.  Home Links for lessons 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 will also be coming home this week.

In science, we will be studying many animals we see during the fall season.  We will be reading and writing about these animals as well as seeing some of them up close on our field trip to The Shalom Wildlife Sanctuary.
