The Toucan Squawk, Sept. 23 - 27

Hello families...I hope everyone has had a great week!  This week we have been working our way through double digit subtraction with regrouping, as well as reviewing addition with regrouping.  You'll start to notice both concepts being included in the homework starting next week.  This will really help cement the concepts to carry through the school year.  The students learned three different chants to help them with double digit addition and subtraction.  I'll send home a copy of these chants to help with the upcoming homework. 

We have also been working on a new writing craft- a candy corn project centered around writing about a book.  The writing will be finalized tomorrow, and the pieces will be put together tomorrow and Friday.
