In Reading, we’ll continue with Unit 2, Look at Us! Our next story will be another nonfiction selection, Nature Spy. In this book, a little girl shares tips on how to explore the wonders of the natural world. We will focus on the letter Ss in the initial and final position of words. Our literary skill for the week will be setting.
In Math, we’ll finish Topic 16: Analyze, Compare and Compose Shapes. We will begin Topic 1: One to Five. Students will learn how to read, write, and count numbers One to Five. Please practice writing numbers 1-5 at home.
Next week we’ll continue with our pumpkin theme and we’ll also incorporate some Halloween fun!

Halloween Parade
On Friday, October 28th, family and friends are invited to attend the school-wide Halloween Parade. The parade will be held at Spartan Stadium! The parade will begin promptly at 2:00 with Kindergarten leading! Students will parade in front of the HOME side bleachers. Students should not wear their costumes to school on Friday. Please send your child’s costume to school in a plastic bag. We ask that the costumes aren't too scary and please keep anything that can be considered a weapon at home. Due to the recent concerns, clown costumes are NOT allowed! Try to keep costumes simple! We have a lot of kids to get dressed in a short period of time.
Field Trip
The Kindergarten Field trip to see the Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble present Every Christmas Every Told (and then some) will be on Friday, December 1st. Please return your child’s blue field trip form if you haven’t done so already.
