Dear Families,
What a wonderful week we have had!  The weather and the learning were all spectacular!  Here's an update...

Writing:  We had SO many students who were chosen to be published in the Creative Communication Poetry Anthology!  This is quite an honor as most poems are not selected! 

Reading:  We have finished Edward Tulane!  This book was very loved by our students.  We tracked how the main characters changes and learns to love.  We have been working on theme and main idea as well.

*Please continue to return Field Trip Permission Slips!  Remember, if you are chaperoning we need your $5.00 when you return the slip.
