The weather was record breaking warm this weekend, but we aren't going to let that fool us. Fall has arrived.
Next week is Harvest Break (Potato Harvest, Harvest Vacation . . . I hear it called all sorts of things!). Watch for information about the Harvest Read-a-thon sponsored by the PTO.
Math: more on geometry and missing addends in addition and subtraction. It's the first step to Algebra.For example: M - 35 = 72 (Switch operations and solve in reverse! Sounds crazy, but what it really means is, if you can't subtract down, then add up . . . once the problem is written vertically.)
Spelling and Grammar: Review of the past four weeks.
Reading: Two short stories about journeys. The first an excerpt from A Cricket in Times Square. The second a true story about a little girl who was "mailed" to her grandmother, The Parcel Post Kid. The cool thing about this story is that it took place in Idaho about a hundred years ago.
Thanks again to Mrs Allen who sings the best songs ever with us!
