We are spending this week reading many of her books and getting ready for the play.

Numbers to 20

From Scenes to Series.......

Today we started our next writing unit, From Scenes to Series. Students will be writing realistic fictions stories. The characters in their stories should be experiencing a small moment. Today students began to develop their character. They were SO excited about this. See pictures below of character drawings.

Art Demo Day

       Wednesday, November 12 the students learned about the different mediums in Art, and were able to ask the artists questions about the art they create. Many of the artists are parents of children or live in the community.

"We are obsessed with Reading!"

Our students are growing in reading so much. We discuss how to become better readers with our partners. One student said she is obsessed with reading! Another said she is so proud that she finished her first chapter book. This week has been extra special with the book fair going on in the library. Many parents have been stopping by to purchase books for the upcoming holidays.

Halloween Fun

While I was out sick, the festivities were under way. Thanks to parents for sharing the wonderful pictures of our children.
