Classroom Snapshot

Dearest Famlies,

This week has started off wonderfully! Here are a few things that we did today, as well as, a few things you will want to take note of.

Today we...
  • learned about comparing numbers in math. We learned all about the symbols that represent greater than, less than, and equal too. Students were real pros at this today. 
  • also learned about Similies. We read a cute book called Crazy Like a Fox: A Simile Story. We talked about how a similie compares two things that are not alike using the words like and as. Then, after we read our book, students created their own similies!
  • had second step with Mrs. Dassinger, and she shared with us today about how we can handle and deal with frustration. (Please ask your child about the three steps to handling frustration.)
  • Finally, at the end of the day we had a special Mystery Reader come in and read to our class! Thank you Mrs. Nolan, which is one of our students grandmothers,  for coming in. We truly enjoyed it. Also a special thank you Mrs. Burns, Mrs. Gieseke, Mrs. Piekosz, Mrs. Kania, who have all come in and read to our class this year. We truly appreciate you coming in!   If you are interested in coming in and reading to our class please click the mystery reader link at the top of the page, and I will email you a day and time!
Things to remember:
  • Wednesday we will be going to the bookfair. If you are interested in your child purchasing books, please be sure to bring money to school with your child for Wednesday.
  • Please be aware that their is also a family book fair night, on October 18th  from 4-7:00 p.m. where you can come in as a family and purchase books. In conjunction with this event, the P.E. department will be hosting an Open Gym from 6:00-7:30. Lots of fun is to be had so hope you will be able to make it out!
That's all for now have a great evening!!!
