It's amazing to think that September is nearly gone! It's been a busy week. In writing our
small moment narrative stories continue to grow. This week we worked on crafting a beginning
that introduced our characters and set the scene for our stories. We are trying to tell our stories
bit by bit, stretching out a small moment into a longer story. In math students work to add and
subtract larger numbers on a number line and looked for patterns on the subtraction table. Students
learned a new game called, "Target 20." In reader's workshop reading logs were introduced as a
way to keep track of what we are reading and to set goals for ourselves. For our all school reward
we painted rocks to spread kindness throughout the school. Our class was full of clever, creative
ideas! Finally in science, we explored the question, "Why do plants make fruit?" There were some
surprises as we investigated this topic!

Questions to spark conversation:
-How can you spread kindness?
-What are some examples of scientific fruit?
-What books do you have in your book bin?
-What is the small moment piece that you worked on this week?
