Elementary learners partnered with their book buddies and read together this morning.
Preschoolers are exploring the letter F this week. Learners painted foot pictures and explored identifying the letter F and it's associated sound. Questions to ask your preschooler- What sound does the letter F make? What are some words with the F sound? When you are reading a story, look for words with the letter F and be a letter detective looking for the letter F outside of school.
The kindergarten class would like to give a huge "THANK YOU" to Mrs. Carol Abrahamson for giving us some little pumpkins to paint!

Welcome to Our House! The high school students kicked off the monthly House meeting at the end of September. They were broken into four groups consisting of students they normally wouldn’t have the chance to spend much time with during the course of the normal school day. Ask your high school student the name of their group, who their fellow members are and the lesson they learned with Lego.
Presenting the September MGPS Dragons of the Month! Congratulations, Harpyr, Lexi, Ellerady and River! A huge shoutout to the McClusky-Goodrich PTO for donating the McClusky bucks for our kiddos. Check out the October newsletter for more details.
Check out the sixth grade "Weather in a Box" projects! Ask your children what kind of weather they tried to sell to their classmates and whether or not they were successful. Also, ask why they chose that particular weather.
The Kindergarten class has been learning about blending syllables. We spent a few days practicing in the classroom using our hand motions. Then they learned a game similar to "Duck, Duck, Goose." The student who was "it" was given the word, i.e. Sunshine, and then they went around the circle tapping classmates' heads and alternating between the word parts, "sun" and "shine." When they wanted to choose someone else to be "it" they would tap a classmate's head and say the blended word "sunshine." Having such a small group didn't make for a large circle so we invited our first-grade friends to come and play with us!
Some questions to ask your students:
What hand motions do you use to blend syllables?
Can you blend these word parts?
cup........cake
snow...........flake
rain.......bow
out..........side
The second graders made PROTOTYPES of bird feeders for different kinds of birds. Ask a second grade student: What type of bird did you choose? What does your bird like to eat? How do they like to eat? What is a PROTOTYPE?
Don't forget - picture day is tomorrow!!
