All Kinds of Reading

Mrs. Thorne came in today so we could teach her how to play our fun math card game.
See if your child can teach you how to play.
Yesterday we met in the library and Mrs. Miltenberger explained S.T.A.R reading.
Second graders are to read 5 hours this month, while third graders are to read 6 hours.
Record your time read each day on the S.T.A.R sheet that comes home tomorrow and then turn it at the end of the month. Students will earn a charm and hopefully fall in love with reading. We will also be participating in a Read A Thon. Sending information on it tomorrow, look in backpacks.


Would you like to see your child's writing? Click on this site and look for their name. We have been working on writing complete sentences with the following criteria:
Begin with capital, end with punctuation, correct spelling, and a complete sentence. We are using the vocabulary words, nouns, verbs, and adjectives.
I will leave this site up so you can pop in from time to time and see our improvement.
Pumpkin Patch!
Yes, we will be going to the pumpkin patch this year. We will be traveling with the kindergartners on October 25th at 8:30. Please send $3 to cover the cost of the pumpkin.

I really enjoy keeping up with your class.
You always seem to be having a great time.
The card game sounds fun. Maybe I can learn it sometime.
I hope you have a great weekend.

Keep those smiles going...
