In Reading, we’ll move on to our next story, Smash! Crash! In this story, Jack Truck and his best friend Dump Truck Dan are spending the day doing their favorite thing...Smashing and Crashing throughout the whole town! Along the way they meet up with their friends! But when a mysterious shadow falls over them and a strange voice calls, could the smashing, crashing duo be in trouble? We will review the literary element character. In Phonics, we’ll focus on the letter Mm and the /m/ sound in the initial and final position.
In Math, we’ll continue with Topic 15: Position and Location of Shapes. We will learn positional words to describe the location of shapes.
Today was the final day of our apple theme! As our culminating activity, we made applesauce!
DIBELS
DIBELS practice sheets for October were sent home yesterday. Please spend a few minutes every night reviewing the skill assigned for that night. This should be a very quick review and only take 2-3 minutes.
Mystery Reader
This week we made predictions about who the Mystery Reader might be. Our predictions were Miss Brylewski, Mrs. Staudenmeier, Mrs. Kaminsky, and Mrs. Potts. Today we got to find out who made an accurate prediction! Our Mystery Reader was Mrs. Staudenmeier! We enjoyed listening to her read and she even made us cookies!
