Here and there:
·
I am beyond grateful
for my supportive families this school year!
Your time and considerations during conferences were noticed and
appreciated. I can see that our students are surrounded by those who want them
to succeed in all areas of life. It is quite a team effort, so far we are off
to a great start!
·
I am happy to
announce that Drew was our September Core Value award winner. His efforts are consistently
made each and every school day. He makes
a conscious effort to show me he is on task and ready for what is next. Drew also makes efforts to show me his neat
work as well as how he came to a solution.
I appreciate his effort within all subjects as I know he makes the most
of every school day! He applies the energy needed to reach success at school.
Keep up with the efforts Drew, they are noticed!

For the month of
October I would like us to specifically focus on PROBLEM SOLVING which means
that I am looking for students to independently find answers to difficult
problems and situations. I am looking
for examples of problem solving as we work, talk, and play at school.
·
October break is
just around the corner.
·
I will be out of
school next Thursday and Friday as my brother is getting married. I will not be
connecting with Dojo but Ms. Forest, our veteran Franklin teacher will be here
to instruct and take care of our room 19 community. She is aware of all our
studies and school behaviors.

Order your Franklin
shirt by Tuesday, October 12th.
Money and order slips can be turned into me or the office. Order forms
were sent home today (Friday, September 28th).
A look at next week…
Spalding
We will be adding to our
books. We are writing with more words with patterns, rules, and jobs. We take
our time discussing how and why we write our words in class. Please take the
time to review the nightly words and put them on the back of the green paper.
By the end of the week I want every child to be best prepared to test!
Reading
Aesop’s fables were such
fun! I will send home our work packet next week. It was great to see the students form
connections about morals and lessons. Next week we will read similar stories
from different lands. Some of our stories include Tom Thumb and Issun
Boshi. While we read our folktales we
will work on text to self-connections as well as compare and contrast.
Math
WOW! What connections have
been made with geometry. We will continue onto 3D shapes, the students are VERY
excited!
Science
I am happy to share that we
are done with our human body unit and now we will learn about objects in the
sky. Our new unit will start with the study of stars!
History
Our early explorers unit
will consist of readings and stories about Christopher Columbus. We will
examine time lines and identify factual information. We will work on an explorer writing while
being inspired by those who embraced adventure!
Have nice weekend all!
Ms. Reger
