Happy Friday!
It's hard to believe that it is already November. Students have been hard at work in every setting; here are some updates:

Word Study:  We started working in groups studying features of words.  Students have learned extensions to help study their words and took a test today!

Writing:  We have committed to a topic for our Personal Narratives!  Students will begin narrowing down to a small moment and drafting these stories next week!

CLiF Grant Assembly:  We had author Jim Arnosky visit our school and tell us stories as well as play music for us!  We also celebrated the addition of $1,000.00 worth of books to our school library.
