We will be reading the story Little Panda by Joanne Ryder.  This is an informational text, and we will be talking about “Animals Grow and Change”.  The comprehension skill we will target is compare and contrast.  Many boys and girls may be interested in checking the live Panda Cam at the San Diego Zoo from home at the following website: http://www.sandiegozoo.org/pandacam/ Practice high frequency sight words daily! 

In math, we will continue working on reading, writing, and counting numbers from 1-20.

AR/Book Buddy recording sheets for December will be due back to school on Wednesday, Wednesday, January 2.  Any student who reaches the goal of 15 books will receive a Pizza Hut Book It slip.

Our Christmas concert will be held at the HS on Saturday, December 8.

Our class Holiday shopping day is Monday, December 3.  Envelopes were sent home in your child's Sparty folder.

Students will need to be prepared for colder weather @ recess.  Warm coats, gloves or mittens, hats and/or scarves are needed.  Recess is a half an hour and unless the ground is snow-covered or it is too cold we will try to get outside for “fresh-air”.  Please practice zipping zippers and putting on gloves with your child.
