Yesterday, we enjoyed a fun gym activity with the 5/6s involving hula hoops and teamwork to get across the gym!

Today, we took home our new Read Every Day program to track our home reading. Please read the instructions and track your child's reading. Your child has been sent home home reading books based on their last reading assessment. Please read the book with your child, ask your some of the discussion questions, and return the book when your feel  your child has completed the reading to the best of your ability. We will read the book with your child when it is returned to school.

This week, we have been having discussions about what we See, Think, and Wonder when we make predictions based on the front cover of a book and make connections when we read a book. As a class, we choose the image of a bookshelf with books on it to help us remember to think of what we have already experienced, read and learned in the past when we think of something new. 

Today, we wrote our personal goals for reading, writing, and math into Iris.

We also talked about another of our 7 Habits characters.

We also made a wishlist of classroom activities that we wish to do during the month of December.  There are some fun schoolwide spirit activities coming up in December as well!

We had a great composting pickup today. Our composting worms are doing well!

Next week, we will be continuing our Press Start rehearsals, reading groups, and math groups.

Next Thursday evening and Friday morning, we will be having student-led learning conferences. Please sign up on my conferences in your My CBE account. I will be booking 45 minute time increments to allow us time to review IPP updates and for your child to share some of their learning activities.
