Fall is on the way! Recess has been much more enjoyable during the cooler weather.   Here are some things we have been doing at school.  In reading, we have been traveling with Mina from Germany to Texas in the 1840s.  Life was not always a paradise.  In math, we have worked hard on regrouping in addition and subtraction and are beginning multiplication.  Beware!  Basic facts should have been memorized last year, so we will not spend much time reviewing them.  In writing, the students are also writing a memory story about a special time in their lives.

Special events in the near future include a talent show on October 29, pumpkin decorating, and Texas Day on Nov. 5.
