10/4/17

10/4/17

Dear Families,

It was a short week but we ended with a high, making it to the top of Owl's Head! It was a hike full of slips, falls, and bee stings but these kids just kept on smiling the whole way! Here is what we have been doing...

Reading:  We continued to read, The Twits, which you can tell from the High/Lows that it has been a favorite among our classes!  We are focusing on character traits that are supported with evidence from the text as well as setting.

Writing: We are working on pushing our thinking to add to entries.  We also learned the strategy of 'lifting a line' from an old entry to create a new one.  We also learned how we can make our writing better by adding precise verbs.


Upcoming Events:
10/6 and 10/9 NO SCHOOL
10/10 Picture Day
10/31 Early Release Day (noon)
