November Dates to Remember

Canton in Conroe is an annual craft show that is held  at our school.  
It will be this Saturday on November 8th.

There is also a Veterans Day Ceremony on November 11th at 8:30. 
 If you have a member of your family that is a Veteran, consider inviting them, 
so we may celebrate them and all their hard work for our country.

Donuts with Dads will end our festivities for the month on November 21st.  
This will be held before school from 7:00 to 8:00

Two Digit Addition

We have learned three different strategies to add two digit numbers together. These strategies and the split strategy, the jump strategy, and basic addition with regrouping. 

Below are some examples of each with steps. If your child is still having trouble and you would like extra practice at home, please let me know.

"Stacking" Addition with Regrouping 


Red Ribbon Week

Last week was red ribbon week. We talked about the importance of being drug free and taking the right paths in each child's future.  Lots of the students have great goals planned for their lives. 
Durin career day, we had veterinarians, businessmen, teachers, military, and doctors all in our classroom. I'm so proud of the high goals they have set for themselves.
 

Author Celebration: Personal Narratives

We spent quite a few weeks on writing personal Narratives. personal Narratives are true stories that happen to you. I loved hearing all the stories and experiences that each student has had outside of school. 
Because our unit was coming to an end, we celebrated our growth as authors with an author celebration. Here are some pictures of us sharing our stories with each other.
