Greetings from Room 116!

What a wonderful week we had. Here are a few quick highlights:

ELA: We studied the vowel/consonant/silent e spelling principle and worked on grammar rules for common and proper nouns. During Reading Workshop, we examined character traits, while also enjoying different Halloween stories.

Math: We reviewed rounding to the nearest 10 and the nearest 100. We also practiced the traditional algorithms for addition and subtraction with two- and three-digit numbers.

Science/SS: We concluded our classroom work on weather/climate. We will extend this study through a longer term technology project.

Other: We published several holiday-themed stories and enjoyed an engaging online game of Escape Room to review elements of the mystery genre. We also had a frightfully fun-filled Halloween! 🎃

Please remember to set your clocks as we “fall back” this weekend. We are looking forward to our rescheduled field trip to the Plimoth Plantation next Thursday, November 7th. Thank you for your flexibility regarding this event!

Happy November, and best wishes to all for a sunnier weekend!

Sincerely,

Ms. Feeney
