I am writing this blog with my kids. I think that if they are a part of the blog writing then they will be more apt to ask you to check it and/or tell you what is going on at school. :)
Conferences have started. The evening conferences are on Nov. 13th and 18th. Some of you have times with me in the morning or right after school. Your child brought home their report card and on the front was a turkey with your conference time on it. I look forward to meeting with you to share your child's growth!
We have earned our 550 tickets. The children had voted to have "toy day" but decided to wait until after Christmas so they can bring in their new toys. So instead we decided to celebrate our ticket totals with a movie, popcorn, and pj day. That will be this Friday (Nov. 14th). I have asked children to bring in some already popped popcorn to share with the class if they can. We haven't decided on a movie yet but it will be a rated "G" movie.
On Friday we will be watching a Brass Ensemble at 1:00 in Music.
On November 20th we will be watching the Disney movie The Newsies as the conclusion of our Progressive Era. On Nov. 21st we will be having a Thanksgiving celebration with our second grade buddies.
In reading we have been working on fluency, biographies, authors purpose, and inferences. Children have also been working on character traits.
The kids want me to write that they are angels. :) They are pretty good kids! :)
A reminder that there is not school the week of November 24th
