Happy Monday!
I hope you were able to enjoy a few days with your kiddos. The 4 day weekend went by way too fast.
     We are plugging along in both math and reading. This week in math we are going to continue to work on decimals. The kids say this is much easier than fractions (I must agree!).
     In reading we are going to finish up our second book club on Friday. I think they are really enjoying reading these books and talking with their group about the things they have learned or have found interesting. Our focus for the week is Inferencing. This is a tough skill and we will be working on it for a few weeks. The spelling test will be on Friday- make sure to study some at home.
   Reminder that conferences are next week-please get the conference slip turned in so I can confirm the scheduled time to meet with you.
   The end of the quarter is November 11th, which is coming up quick. Students need to reach their AR goal as it is a part of their reading grade.
   Our Fall Party is this Friday, October 28th with the Fall Festival that evening. Students can wear Orange and Black to school on Friday and can wear an appropriate costume to the Fall Festival.
Have a great week!
