Parent Teacher Conferences: It was so good to see so many of you last night. I’m looking forward to seeing the rest of you during Fall in-person conferences on Tuesday, October 24. Here is the schedule for conferences. Please let me know if something comes up and you need to make adjustments to your time.
Halloween: On Tuesday, October 31, please send your child to school dressed in regular school clothes, as our celebration will be held in the afternoon. The school parade will take place outside at 2:15. Parties will immediately follow. Below are some reminders as you start thinking about costumes.
Students should plan on slipping on costumes over their clothes. Students need to do this independently.
Please remember no full face masks, face paint, make-up, blood, or weapons.

WEEK AT A GLANCE
Math: This week we focused on developing addition strategies, particularly doubling and counting on to solve combinations within 12. Students worked with their number racks to visualize numbers and learned games in which they added and recorded their results. Students who are still counting by 1s to add are encouraged to count on instead and students who have moved beyond counting by 1s are encouraged to develop strategies that make use of well-known facts to solve less familiar combinations.
SEL
Lesson: In this week’s lesson, your child will show what they’ve learned
about paying attention, managing distractions, and practicing as they learn to
draw Pepito, a character from Second Step Elementary animated videos.
Try This at Home: Ask your
child to tell you about their experience learning to draw Pepito. Encourage
them to draw a family portrait with Pepito in it as a way to keep practicing.
