Last Week’s Highlights
Monday
Ms. Melinda also came and talked to us about
pumpkins! We learned about the pumpkin cycle
and made a charm necklace that was filled with
reminders of each stage of the cycle.
Tuesday
Our theme this past week was How Animals Grow.
Our story was Farfallina and Marcel a story about
a caterpillar/ butterfly and a gray bird/goose and
how they changed as they grew.
Wednesday
Thursday
Some reading skills we worked on included
similes and making inferences (using what
we know to figure something out.)
In Math we continued with Topic 4 – Place
Value: We compared numbers, and used the
greater than > /< less than, and equal =
symbols. We put numbers before, after, and
between and ordered numbers from least to
greatest and greatest to least.
Some football players from the FHS football team
came to FGS to read to the students in our
classrooms. Check out the District website to see
pictures!
We also had our No Late Assignment Fall Fling!
Bringing back our homework each day helps us
