Hello!
What a beautiful autumn week we've had!  I hope you've all had a chance to get outside and enjoy it, especially this weekend!

We had a great week in 106C!  We compared versions of The Three Little Pigs, practiced identifying and writing complete sentences, and wrote about our observations of the seasonal changes outdoors.  Guest speakers from Windham Public Safety came to talk with us about being safe in case of a fire.  Our math work included more computation practice and discussing place value (ones, tens, and hundreds) and showing that we can use ten frames.  We had fun with Stuffie Day on Friday and are already working toward earning our next 25 Caught You Being Good cards!

 

 



Thank you for supporting the Caring for Classrooms fundraiser that went home last week!  Last year, our class raised over $400 for classroom materials, which provided us with books, a microscope, several math tools and games, and other items which this year's class uses and enjoys. :) . The classroom gets 100% of the donations-here's a link, if you would like more info: http://www.caringforclassrooms.net/cgi/SchoolResult?mode=init

Thank you for your book orders!  Another book order will go home next week.  Our classroom code is H63NZ.  Please submit book orders no later than the due date.  I am required to log in and approve/submit all parent online orders, which is much easier to do all at once :) .  We can also earn extra bonus points (which equals extra books for our classroom library) if our cumulative order reaches various points, so it is very helpful if all orders are submitted at one time.  Thank you!!

I know that several families expressed interest in volunteering-please review the volunteering letter from the last 2 weeks' blog notifications and send me your availability as soon as you can so that I can build a schedule and send it out.  Thanks!

Thank you also for turning in...
-Library books on Mondays
-white Reading Folders (with the books!) on Mondays
-Eagle News on Mondays, and
-the purple Homework Folder on the first Monday of the month. 

Please don't put notes, money, etc. in the white or purple folders-they should be sent in Eagle News or in a separate envelope to ensure that I will see them in time.  Thanks :)

AND-thank you for reading the blog!  :) :) :)

Don't forget to check the Upcoming Events calendar!  :)
Have a great rest-of-the-weekend!
