Update 10-5

We are in the middle of Capture the Flag and the kids seem to be loving it!  Our goal is to finish it this week.  Your child should be taking it home and reading it nightly.  For this week, students can choose 3 of the 4 reading log entries to complete because I gave them some homework tonight that may have taken some extra time.

Next week will end our quarter on October 15th.  Your child should have at least 20 reading counts points by then.  Capture the Flag is on there and is worth 12 points.  :)

Reading skills we are covering are:  (fiction)- characters, setting, plot, summarizing, vocabulary and we will be getting into theme later this week.    Wednesday, October 14 will be a fictional summative over these skills with two passage and questions.

Students are finishing their symbol articles and will be conferencing with me again before they finish their final draft.  We typed them on Google Classroom.  Ask your child about it and to see it!

Just a reminder that conferences are coming soon.  If you haven't signed up yet, please contact your child's homeroom teacher.
