I hope everyone had a restful Thanksgiving weekend! Jay and I got to spend time with family and talk about all the things we are thankful for in our lives. It's a beautiful thing to take some time to acknowledge our blessings. :)

Here's a look at our upcoming week:
Spalding: This coming week we will learn 4 new phonograms ng, ea and the partner phonograms aw/au (cue: not used).
We will also learn our first five spelling words:
Me, do, go, and, at. Please refer to your child’s homework for the correct markings on each spelling word.
Sight Words: This week we will review list 1 and then test on Friday.
Literature: This week we will read "The Gingerbread Man.” We will explore different versions and in the afternoon we will even go on a hunt to catch the Gingerbread Man. The poem will be, "Three Blind Mice. Please continue to send your child’s book bag daily with their sight word lists inside. Students should be be reading their assigned book to you each night and reviewing their sight words. Thank you for your continued support!
Math:This week we will discuss capacity. Students will work with different size containers and decide which container can hold more. We will also discuss equal sets (for example: cups and straws). There will be an assessment on weight, capacity, and equal sets on Friday.
Science: We are exploring magnets this week! Students will learn that magnets have 2 poles and that they can attract and repel other magnetic things. Scholars will get to experiment with magnets around the classroom. They will predict what things a magnet will attract and what it will not.
History: We will be learning about the continent of Europe. Scholars will become familiar with the names of a few countries in Europe as well as their famous landmarks. We will learn more about European castles and why castles were important in medieval times.
Thanksgiving Week Fun!
