Autumn Weather

It finally feels fall-like! It was almost chilly in our room, also. So far, I haven't figured out if we will be cool or warm all winter, so it is a good idea to always send a sweatshirt/sweater, light jacket along as these days cool down. We may not need the wraps outside, but we might INSIDE! :)

Congratulations Brewers! We will have a "Brewer Day" on Wednesday. Your child may wear blue/white/yellow, Brewer's jerseys, t-shirts, other sports-related wear or just regular clothes. I hope to come up with a math game to go along with baseball!

Math homework should start coming home several times a week now. Math will be due the following day or as soon as you can get it back. Spelling homework should always come home on Monday and is due on Friday or Thursday if there isn't a Friday in the week. TONIGHT's homework is to write a number story. Number Model is the same as number sentence or equation. UNIT refers to what we are adding or subtracting - like cents, dollars, cookies, shoes, minutes, etc. It's like a new language!

Library was today and a few students will be getting overdue notices unless we can get those books back ASAP! We do have Library every 4 days, but I allow the children to return books anyday they bring them in.

Also coming home tonight are packets for the PTO fundraiser. Many of the special acivities are paid for by PTO. Assemblies, books for classrooms, sometimes field trips! We teachers really appreciate all PTO does for our school and our children.

All for tonight - we're tired - it's Monday! Mrs. S. and The Munchkins
