Dear Parents,
                               
This has been a very fun week here in room 115!  We had a wonderful day at the Zoo on Tuesday and want to thank Mrs. MacDonald, Mrs. Fragoso, and Mrs. Suhail for coming with us!  We also enjoyed our Halloween Parade today.  It was fun to watch everyone get dressed up.
We will start learning about the Wampanoags and Pilgrims next week.  I hope the students will be able to comprehend a little about how different it was to live 400 years ago.  The students will be making their Wampanoag costumes and will start to weave placemats soon.  We will be focusing on families and homes during the next couple of weeks.  They will make family collages, which will include everyone who lives in their homes and they will create a class book with their houses and addresses.  It would be great if you could work with your child on memorizing his/her street address.
The students have been working hard in math. We are still working on writing our numbers, one to one correspondence and different math language (i.e. which is more or fewer, etc.).
We are looking forward to Miss Lyons’ return this coming week...or Mrs. Marsh actually!  I’m sure the students will help her get caught up on all that she missed!  We want to say a really BIG thank you to Miss Laquidara for her help during the past couple of weeks!

Have a great weekend and Happy Halloween!

We still need brown grocery bags for our Thanksgiving projects.  If you could ask for some at the grocery store the next time you go, that would be helpful.  Thank you!

Don’t forget to set your clocks back an hour for Daylight Savings this weekend!
