Welcome Back!
I hope that everyone enjoyed their extra long Thanksgiving weekend. We are into another short week. Just a reminder that picture retakes and school clothing orders will take place on Wednesday October 14th.
Tulip/International Project
Wednesday October 14th is a big day! We will have our first video conference with our partner class in Dallas, Texas. The students are very excited and can't wait to meet their pen pals. We received their letters today and were very happy to receive the package. We will be starting return letters this week. Tomorrow afternoon we will be planting our tulip garden. This is part of our project with Texas. Stay tuned for more information and photos.
Daily 5
The students are working hard on this aspect. We reached 13 minutes of independent reading today. We have also been learning the different ways to "Read To Someone".
Book Orders
October Book Order forms went home today and are due back on Friday October 16th.
Please make sure that you read each night.
Have a wonderful week everyone!
