Happy Fall!

I wanted to give a great big thank-you to Mrs. Scafe for making our class directories.  Your child brought one home last week.  If you have any changes or corrections please send me an email so I can let her know.  Thank you Mrs. Scafe!!

Also, thanks to Mrs. Carney for combining our emails for me! I sent a test email Saturday night.  Please respond to that email so I will know you received it.  If you didn't receive an email from me, please let me know.  This will be a much quicker way to communicate during the week if I haven't touched base with you about something on our blog.  Thank you Mrs. Carney!!

Teacher Treat Day was Wonderful! We absolutely have the most amazing PTA! Thank you Mrs. Scafe, Mrs. Carney, Mrs. Foley, and Mrs. Bailey for taking the kids to lunch.

Your child has been bringing home a very large amount of paperwork over the last couple of weeks.  Please make sure you are checking their binders nightly so you don't miss any important information that may be coming home.  I have also been asking the kids to be responsible with making sure you see the information at night.  For example, a Science study guide came home last week for a test this Thursday.  It is very important that your child studies the vocabulary words a little bit each night. 

School pictures are this Thursday.  Your child doesn't have to wear their uniform, but they still have to follow school guidelines on the dress code. 

We will be creating very large skeletons this week which will require A LOT of white paper plates and brads.  If you are able to send in either of these supplies please do so by Wednesday.  We will be making them Thursday and Friday this week. 

Your child has a new sheet of Spelling Words for Unit 2 in their binder.  We will begin with the Unit 2 Week 1 words this week. 

Story this Week: Tara and Tiree
Genre: Narrative Nonfiction
Phonics: r-Controlled ar, or, ore
Comprehension Skill: Sequence
Comprehension Strategy: Predict
Grammar: Nouns

We will have a Math test this Tuesday.  I am sorry about the delays last week, but we needed more time on the chapter.  Please look for the review sheet to come home this Monday. 

We will have a Science Vocabulary Test this Thursday.  Your child received a study guide for it last week.

Remember to check STI if you need to keep a close eye on your child's grades before you see signed papers. 

Have a super week!
