Halloween Math Story Problems
We have been solving Halloween Story Problems...The haunted house had three pumpkins, two ghosts and 1 goblin. How many altogether? We will be creating our own math Halloween story problems soon. At math time today we learned a new math game called Compare. We liked working with math partners. 
The Queen of Ten
We were so excited to see the Queen of Ten today! During morning meeting we practiced counting by 5's and 10's. When the Queen arrived she arranged the class in groups of 10 to get to thirty! She had to include some baby dolls to get to 30!

Writing About Pumpkins
Interactive Writing Time
During an interactive writing lesson, the teacher and students share both the composing and the writing. Individual students take turns "sharing the pen" to write parts of the message.Because our writing is intended to be read-either by ourselves or by someone else-we want to make sure it is written in "book writing."
This week we have been reading lots of books about pumpkins. We have been writing some of the facts we are learning. During this writing lesson, we focused on spelling and spaces between words.

Open Circle
This week during Open Circle we Read the story Have You Filled A Bucket Today? This story shares with students that we all have invisible buckets we carry around all day. The way we treat one another can fill or empty our buckets. We have been focusing on how to be a bucket filler.
