Weekly News 11/15

The first big chill of the year hit this week...everyone agrees it seems little early to have indoor recess due to the cold! As conferences wrap up, we want to thank you for supporting your child in the goals they have set for themselves! Stay tuned for follow up reflections around goal setting.

Here's what we were up to this week with some questions to ask your child:

• Revising story leads to hook the reader
• How does your story start?
• Choosing books for character book clubs
• Discussing expectations for book clubs and reviewing things to talk about
• What book are you reading?
• How did your first meeting go? What did you talk about?
• Exploring addition and subtraction
• What have you learned about addition and subtraction?
• What was your favorite math activity this week?
• Creating our Great Bay murals
• What animals are on your mural?

Next week book clubs will continue to meet, narrative stories will be revised, and we will visit with a Great Bay scientist!

Upcoming dates:

11/27-11/29- No school, Thanksgiving break
