How many do I have now?) and ask me about the number story I am working on Playing Top-It- ask me how to play Playing Tall Towers on September 11th and the video we watched with Tim and Moby about what happened on that day 11 years ago Playing Top-It and ask me to teach you how to play

The students will be tested over the 5 Monster Words. Keep in mind that these rst couple of weeks we are getting students used to the idea and practice of studying for a test. We will be adding bonus words and differentiating after next weeks words. * Next Monday and Tuesday there will be NO HOMEWORK (DEAR or written) in observance of the Jewish Holiday Rosh Hashanah. We will continue with our spelling words next week, but because some friends may be out of school on Monday, we have decided to give you a sneak peek of next weeks words. We will practice these words in the classroom both Monday and Tuesday and will then send home a spelling activity for homework Wednesday evening. If you have time in the evenings on Monday and Tuesday to practice these words with your child we encourage you to do so. MONSTER WORDS for next week
