Farm Fusion (optional)
- We LOVED hearing your stories!! This week, here are a few ideas:
- Can you believe that those bradford pear spikes can pop a tractor tire?! Can you think of a story that talks about those spikes?
- The weather is getting cooler. Write a story about fall on the farm!
- Or... any story of your choice! We love to hear them!
- (Parents- our Farm Fusion stories are to help foster a love of writing. There is ZERO pressure on these... some kids write their own, some get a lot of help, and some dictate to their parents to read in class, and some I read for them! They love it, and it helps them learn a love of writing!
Handwriting
All Cursive Books-
- Practice flowing from letters d, a, and c, just like we did in class. Bring in your practice pages to show us!
