Teachers are Always Learning

This will be a short week for our students as their teachers will be traveling to a conference to learn.  We shared this with our class last week and they were surprised be needed to 'go to school', but we let them know we LOVE to learn and look forward to opportunities to learn how to teach them better.  That's exactly what we'll be doing in Seaside, OR along with Lutheran teachers from several states in the North West.  We plan on coming back with some fresh ideas for the classroom!

In reading we will take a break from sight words and finish up the alphabet review with letters Zz and Ss.  Students will continue practice giving their opinion and now start to give reasons why they think what they do.

We'll just have time to finish up our chapter in math on graphing.  In November we'll move on to using numbers 10-20.

Student will finish up a science experiment that tests several natural substances in the sun and in the shade.  Our object is to understand if the sun warms the earth and if the temperature difference changes with the substance.  It's our first go at working with a lab partner, so we are also learning a lot about how to listen and work with others as a team.

We hope you have something good planned for the days off of school.  Make some fall memories with your child!

Thank you for being great parents,

Mrs. Luoma
