Happy Groundhog's Day! The groundhog did not see his shadow so here's hoping that spring comes early! The weather this past weekend and week make me hopeful...
We are about halfway done with the third quarter. Reading Number the Stars was a great experience for everyone. Many kids told me what a great book I picked. That was sweet and kind to hear.
Tomorrow is a reading summative covering our skills of point of view, main idea, reasons and evidence, and text structure. We reviewed today in class and are ready to take it. We are ending our week with a project about Number the Stars to display in our hallway. I will post pictures when it is done.
At the end of this week, each child will conference with me about Reading Counts and how they are progressing with their third quarter goals.
The first half of this quarter was spent on writing responses to reading. We compared and contrasted, analyzed multiple points of view, and just finished a response on theme. Our next writing unit will be opinion writing.
Thanks for your continued support!
