November 26-30

Important News
  • We are looking for donations of any unwanted items around your house that can be placed in the "Trash Can Art" bin. This would include paper towel rolls, cupcake wrappers, wrapping paper, fabric scraps, stickers, cotton balls, etc. Don't throw it away! The kids would love to turn it into something unique!
  • Winter is coming and unfortunately that includes snow! Please pack an extra pair of gloves and socks in your child's backpack in case they get wet. Also, if you would like to keep an extra pair of pants and socks at school, please send them in a large ziploc bag with your child's name on it. We will keep them in our classroom in case your child gets wet at recess and needs to change. Thank you!
  • Book orders--Mrs. Gallucci's class are due December 5.  Mrs. Haughey's are due on December 4.
  • Do you have an old walkman that you don't want anymore?  We are looking for several cassette and/or CD walkmans that the students can use as individual listening centers.  Thank you!
Language Arts
The next three weeks we will be learning about cultures around the world.  We will be learning about the different homes they live in, types of transportation and the ways children get to school.  We will be comparing and contrasting what we have learned.  We will also be using the information we have learned to write in our journals.  We will continue to learn about blending and segmenting phonemes and medial sounds.

Math
We will be solving story problems with manipulatives.  We will also be working on formation of our numbers.
