We have read many books about fall, and our favorite class book is called Fall Is Not Easy by Marty Kelley ... it is a book that makes us laugh!

We read all the Laura Numeroff books and learned that they are called circle books because the story completes a circle!

Currently we are reading books written and illustrated by Nancy Carlson.  Her books all teach a life lesson!

October themes: fire safety, seasons, and bats!

October math skills we are working on: printing the numbers 0-6 and all kinds of patterns (ABAB, ABBABBA, ABC).

October reading skills: rhyming words, printing our names beginning with an upper case letter, the rest of the lower case letters, printing all letters of the alphabet correctly, learning all sounds of the letters, and memorizing the following sight words: A, I, me, see, the, like, yes, no.
