Language Arts
We will be reading several stories about Thanksgiving.  Our focus skill for the week is comparing and contrasting.  We will also be working on listening and writing the ending sound in words.  The students have been learning how to "chop" the words in order to hear each sound when writing.

Math
Our K-5 Math Coach, Mike Lipnos, is working with our classes from now until the end of the semester.  We are working on several activities to reinforce the numerosity of five.  We are also working on number recognition, counting and dice patterns.

Have a great week!
