Snow!

March 17, 2017

I guess the groundhog was correct because we received a LOT of snow!  We hope you were able to enjoy our unexpected days off.  Students came back to school yesterday ready to learn!  Here is what we have been up to:

Reading:  We have started examining non fiction texts!  Students have been comparing fiction and non fiction and identifying non fiction text features.

Writing:  We are starting to brainstorm our favorites in order to find topics we are passionate about.  We will be moving in to writing opinion pieces based on these topics.

Upcoming Dates:

March 22nd:  Early release day
March 31st:  All School Morning Meeting
March 31st:  March Acknowledgement (Swimming/basketball at VTC)
