Things we did this week: 

Letters

This week was all about the letter G - gorillas, glitter, and gingerbread! 
 

Handwriting

The Letter O - (big curve, big curve) 

Math

We are still practicing starting at the number 10 and continuing to count on to 20.  Good news - we have all mastered ABAB patterning!! 

Science

We did a lot of work with magnets - try to do some magnetic experiments at home! 

Story Time

We have learned the word Author - and are learning a lot about how we are all authors during our Writer's Workshop time! 

REMINDERS 

Our communication folders come home on Mondays only.  Please return them by Friday. 

It's getting cold outside!  Students will continue to go outside for recess through the winter.  Please remember hats and gloves for them - and remind your student to leave these things on and take care of them when they come inside.  We already have a big pile of gloves that no one seems to think is their own!  

We even go outside in the snow - so be prepared!  The only time we stay inside is if it's raining or if the wind chill is below zero. 

Have a great weekend!!
