Hello families and friends,

In the morning we have been continuing work on our literacy skills in our individual class groups.  Ask your child what they have been working on.  We have continued with our math rotations as well.  Mr. Soulliere is continuing to work on number sense and equations, Ms. McEvoy and Ms. Terri are working on measurement, and Ms. Klein is working on shape.  Ask your child what they have worked on the last couple days.

In the afternoon we continued work in our word work groups.  Ask your child for some words that use the skill they practiced today and see if you can guess what it was!  We have also been continuing our work investigating liquids.  Yesterday we experimented with our materials that we used last week to patch up our styrofoam cups to see if they would hold water.  Today we looked at how water moves and drew some pictures to go along with it.  Why do you think we saw the water sticking together like it did on top of the pennies?  Post your prediction in the comments below.

Tomorrow is Fun Lunch.  Fill Your Freezer fundraiser forms are due back by Thursday, November 19th.  Landmark Cinema order forms are also due back by Thursday, November 19th.

Watch in the weekly parent message for when booking becomes available for Parent Teacher Interviews; these are coming up in only two weeks!

Thank you again to those of you that have been posting in the blog what you will be bringing in for Families Helping Families.  The posts with information can be found here for Soulliere, McEvoy, and Klein.

Have a great evening,

Mr. Soulliere
