Phonics - We have been learning about basewords and suffixes.  So far we have learned about the suffix s.  Last week we focused on the suffix s making words plural.  This week we will focus on the suffix s being an action word.

Religion - Our November virtues and values are gratitude and humility.  First we will focus on humility.  Humility is being humble - being proud of yourself without bragging.  The Bible story that we read last week was the story of David and Goliath.  Our Promise Paper focused on seeing God's goodness through the story of a miracle.  The miracle from the Gospel was Jesus healing a blind man - Bartimaeus.  We also continued to talk about the unthinkable and thinkable Rock Brain and Rex Flexinator.

Paul was our October BOLT Award recipient for 

sincerity and trustworthiness

Writing - We finished our October journals.  They will be going home this week.  We will now be starting our personal narrative unit.  A personal narrative is a true story about you.

Math - We spent all last week learning how to tell time.  We are learning how to tell time to the :00 and the :30.  

Reading - We work on reading skills every day in daily 5.  We meet in reading groups, in addition to the centers - read to self, read to someone, listen to reading, work on writing, and word work.

Turkey Time!  One of my favorite crafts are our hand and feet turkeys!

Discovery Dairy, our Adopt-A-Cow partner, has 81 cows this year.  They are running a fun campaign

where you can vote for your cow.  The cow that gets the most votes will receive a calf care package.  They will even have a watch party on Friday so we can see which cow wins.  Vote for Spot from Schleis Farm!  :)
