Ooooops! We are so sorry that last week's flocknote did not get sent until Wednesday of this week. We thought it had been sent by the other teacher. So, thanks to Sonia for asking about spelling words and alerting us to the missing newsletter. Mrs. Kennedy will be the one typically that sends the flocknote. We both add and edit each week but you can count on receiving the flocknote every Friday or Saturday. Please let us know if you do not see a newsletter from us!!!
Important Dates and information to Be Aware of:
We collected book orders today. If you missed our deadline for ordering, send it Monday and we will include it in the October book order. We will be sending a book order each month so you will have plenty of opportunities to order good books for your home.
Snacks - Please refer to the snack schedule that was sent home Friday, October 5th. Remember we must have items from list due to severe food allergies. Jake Berdo will be providing snack for October 15-19. Thank you!
Please make sure to send your child with a hat, gloves or mittens and a coat each day. Many students had to borrow items from the office this week. It will continue to be cold and these items are a must for recess.

Spelling - Next week's spelling words will be review. We will work on words your child has not mastered this term. Some children have mastered most of the words and will have time to collect some new words of their own choosing.
Science - Students observed and drew cuttings of mint, philodendron and a spider plant. Students read an interesting story about Plants and Animals around the World.
Math - We have been working on addition to ten and learning how to add on. Next week we will be reviewing our skills for Unit 1.
Social Studies - Our focus has been how people should interact in a community. What behaviors should members of a community demonstrate? We read the book Have You Filled a Bucket Today? We made a class poster and listed all of the behaviors we should show one another -- be kind and nice, be caring. They paid attention to the scripture saying we have by our desk and wanted that added to their poster: "Love One Another As I Have Loved You"
What great examples these young children are of how we should live.

We will continue working on reading skills, adding new sight words, learning new reading strategies, and working on addition. We continue to work on community, including qualities that help us be supportive, caring people who take care of one another.
Please remember to email both of us if you have any questions or concerns. We plan to check emails daily.
