Listen to the Music
We’re off to the Oakland Symphony on Tuesday. Students need to bring a bag lunch as I’m hoping the weather will hold and we can go on a picnic. The drivers for this trip are Aria’s, Boris’, Jacky’s, Mari’s, Nola’s, Reese’s, and Sam’s parents.
Students that need car seats can leave them in the hallway under our bulletin board. Please label your child’s car seat.
Halloween Festivities
It’s work first, then play later...on Halloween day. We will have a regular day in terms of classroom work up until lunchtime. After lunch (students usually finish eating by 12:15) students can come back to the room to change into their costumes. I will be in the room; and hopefully a couple of parents will be here to assist kids ,too. If you want to take your home to “dress,” you can pick up your child at 11:50. This is the time the class goes to lunch. (See Walkie-Talkie for details.)
Isabel’s mom, Jen, is coordinating our classroom party. She may have called / emailed you about how you can help. Parents will be needed to help set up and clean up after the party. Please join us for the festivities! Families are welcome!
The (Sentence) Structure of the Haunted House
Your child built a haunted house with their 4th / 5th grade buddy. The next day, s/he wrote about it. Students were given the prompt: It was a dark night. They did a great job writing their stories.
Prior to writing, I told them I would be looking for sentences. We reviewed how to start and end a sentence. When they read to me, we corrected sentence structure. As your child writes, please reinforce this concept.
Their haunted houses and stories are in the front enty hallway. Come see their work.
Open Court
We’ve completed units 1 and 2 of Open Court. These beginning units focused primarily on consonants and short vowel sounds. Yesterday we started unit 3. Students are being introduced to other spellings for phonemes (i.e. / j / spelled/ j /and / j / spelled
/ dge /.) Several of the lessons also have multiple books. Please practice the blending lessons at home. Reinforce phonemes and spellings in the Open Court Phonics workbook your child brought home.
In addition to blending/reading the words, students also use the words in sentences and/or tell the meaning ot the words. There have been words in several blending lessons that students can read/ blend, but no one can explain or use the word. Playing “Find the Word” goes beyond just blending/reading, but builds vocabulary and enhances understanding of words. I also think it’s more creative when students come with ways to use the words! We also come up with multiple meanings and homophones for the word. Play this “game” with your child often. You can also come up with variations of “find the word!”
READING
Read and record in your Reading Log.
WRITING
What do you like or don’t like about Halloween? Tell why? Write at least five sentences. Encourage your child to explain “why.” We’ve been working on “extending,” giving more information.
MATH
Before your child starts to eat his/her Halloween candy, have him/her sort their candy three different ways. Have your child tell/write how they sorted and count how many there are in each group. Then find the total number after each “sort.”
The purpose of this activity is to have your child sort the same pile of “goods” different ways. Students will also have practice counting candies/manipulatives with one-to-one correspondence. The totals should be the same for the different ways they sorted.
Your child may sort something other than candy. It’s your/their choice.
IMPORTANT FACTS
Have your child learn/write his/her address and telephone number. Practice writing each five times. (Watch that your child is forming the numerals correctly. It is important to form numerals/letters from the top.) I will be asking students to tell me their information.
If the weather is nice this week, go for a walk in your neighborhood. Point out the house numbers. As you go from house to house, see if your child notices a pattern....
