On Tuesday we went to Shelburne Farms as a Team.  We broke up into small groups and went on a scavenger hunt and then met back at the Farmyard to play with the animals.  It was a lot of fun. 
In math we have been working with dominoes to help us with math facts and to compare numbers.  In Reader's Workshop we are continuing with lessons to help us become better readers.  In writer's workshop we are writing some wonderful small moments. 
On Wednesday we saw the movie "Born to be Wild".  A mother from Miss Blair's classroom came in to talk to us about being an activist and the importance of helping all animals.  She is an activist for elephantsdc.org.  Their logo is "E is for Elephants, Not Extinction!"
On Thursday we had a presentation from PTO for the giftwrap Fundraiser.  These packets were sent home in your child's Friday Folder.  Please help your child to remember to return their Friday folders every Thursday.
Next week we have Hands on Nature on Tuesday.  We will be learning about life in the dirt. 
Don't forget to sign up for conferences on Monday, October 13 and Tuesday, October 14th.


Have a great weekend,


Nancy
