September is over!

Can you believe it? September is coming to an end, and we are starting October?

After checking the blog this morning, the book fair was listed in the upcoming events in the first blog in September. I'm sorry some of you missed it. Remember to sign up for my remind 101 text as well. Enter number 81010 and text @p221. This will sign you up to receive reminders.

This week we are wrapping up our Super Citizen unit in Social Studies. We had many conversations and acted out different ways to be good citizens. We also have talked about being citizens of our school, community and country.

In writing, we started zooming in on small moments and sequencing stories. Next week the lessons will focus on adding details and using pictures to enhance our stories.

Guided reading groups officially start Monday. The students have done so well learning how to transition and use their time effectively for independent learning. In groups they will be listening to stories, practicing writing sight words, responding to literature and independently reading. 

This has been such a great week! I was able to meet so many of you and have lots of good laughs with the kids!

I am hoping to make it to the Apple Fest and get the grocery shopping done. Have a restful weekend!
