(We know the Fire Truck is coming to visit on Friday... but we couldn't postpone our Western Day Dress Up Time on Friday!)

The breakdown this week: Monday is NO SCHOOL/Teacher Planning Day. Ms.Finocchiaro is out Tuesday and Mrs.Croft is out on Friday. Tuesday is Vision Screening in the morning and Friday is the Fire Truck Visit in the Afternoon. The Resources are Tuesday #1-17 ART (Phillips) and #18-36 ART (Schmidt), Wednesday MEDIA (Both Groups!), Thursday #1-17 ART (Schmidt) and #18-36 ART (Phillips), & Friday #1-17 MUSIC (Broach) and #18-36 MUSIC (Biernacki). Friday is Western Day and Zacari will be bringing in the Fun Friday Snacks for the Class. 
Also, Mrs. Croft's birthday is on Friday~ October 20. (And for those of you that know Mrs. Ahnemiller in Kindergarten. It's her birthday Friday too!!)

**Don't forget to turn in Field Trip Money and Permission Slips! Also, if you plan on Volunteering you NEED TO FILL OUT THE ONLINE VOLUNTEER APPLICATION. As of right now there is only one parent that has signed up to Volunteer~ We thank you Mrs. Ramirez!! :) **

MATH
We will be focusing on making groups for number 5 and adding MORE. We will be adding different amounts to groups of 5~ this is all for showcasing  parts of a group and figuring out the whole groups. Also, make sure to practice writing numbers at home and counting to 50 or higher. The 2nd quarter is quickly approaching and the bar in math has been raised! :) 

SAXON/ SKILLS
We will focus on a. We will discuss how it is a vowel and it makes two sounds. Recently Saxon has had us read CVC (consonant vowel consonant) words that have the vowel o. Now they will be mixing it up and having us code and read words that have either letter o or a in the middle. :)
**I made a slideshow you can use with your child. I recorded the chopping up and reading of the words. If you want it, send us an email and we'll email it to you.    I wasn't able to embed on here because the sound bites would not work.**
Our Sight Words this week are five, on, get & so. Here is a slideshow for you to use and practice the words at home with your child. 



READING/ SCIENCE
We are continuing on with the Five Senses! We will discuss the sense of touch. (Clock HERE to read the Duval Reads story.) We will complete our Popcorn Activity with the Five Senses and work on a Five Senses Book. :)  Later in the week we will focus on Fire Safety and how our Five Senses keep us safe from harm. We will also learn about the different parts of the fire truck. 
Check back on the Vision Screening and Fire Truck Visit post to see the Youtube videos we'll be watching. Plus enjoy this book about a dragon who starts a fire in a house.
