Dear Families,
We have had a wonderful week of learning! Here is what we have been doing:
Reading: We have started our nonfiction reading unit! Students are learning about text features and strategies for reading nonfiction. They are working in reading groups to practice what we are learning through our read aloud.
Writing: After learning qualities of descriptive writing, students are currently drafting a piece about their shoes! We are very excited to see their completed pieces.
EXCITING NEWS: Third graders will be participating in the Red Cross Learn to Swim program at VTC! Students will get four weeks of swimming lessons from Red Cross professionals who will be supported by WMHS students currently training as life guards! More information and permission slips are going home tonight!
