September Newsletter

Welcome to the first month of ACI 2!

Hello Parents,
We are excited to begin ACI 2 with your child!  We are going to continue to build on the skills learned in ACI 1 while also introducing new ideas.

This month, we will be starting our new ELA book, “Time to Celebrate”. In this book, we will be looking at different celebrations around the world. This book will teach us about different cultures while we show our students several different reading and comprehension strategies.  We know your child will enjoy learning about these special days around the globe.


In math, we are moving into our new unit on Patterning and Place Value. In our new unit, we will explore number patterns, skip counting, and comparing numbers using Base Ten Blocks and number lines. Students will become more comfortable with larger numbers.



This month in science, we will be starting our Thinking like a Scientist Unit.  This is a great introduction to the many science activities we have planned for the year.  In this unit, we will be introducing our students to the many different ways scientists work with observation and understanding in their experiments.
