Hat Day Celebration

Our Creativity Shines

Thank you  - to our chaperones that accompanied us to the DuPage Children's Museum: Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Gajula and Mrs. Motuelle.  Everyone had an awesome time in class and interacting with the many exhibits.

Reading/Language Arts
We will continue with the different stories of the 3 Little Pigs.  We will also be reading the fables:  The Hare and the Tortoise, The Crow and the Pitcher, The Grasshopper and the Ants, Belling the Cat and The Fly on the Wagon. 
Focus:  predicting, central message

Everyone was excited to receive their pen pal letters from Ms. Pellin's class.  We will be writing back next week.
