Good afternoon!

We had a great day today celebrating Halloween at St. Jude's!  The school started off the day with pumpkin decorating and Halloween costume contests.  There was tough competition!  When we got back to class the class began more CAT practice, where they were once again asked to identify and match the beginning and ending letters in various words.  The children also had a spelling test, worked in their spelling notebooks, worked on estimating and grouping and went to french.  We had Halloween craft-time in our classroom where the children created Halloween ghosts that they are bringing home with them tonight to display for the holiday. 

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, re-write incorrect spelling words ten times each, finish math page 41 if necessary (grade 2).

Important information:  Progress reports will be coming home with your child.  Please keep your eye out for these reports tonight.  Please keep the healthy snacks coming in with your child to be eaten during first recess for house points!

Have a great Halloween!
