Greetings Everyone! The state of Florida agreed to waive the missed days from Hurricane Matthew. We will NOT have to make them up! :) We have finished reading our second novel of the year, Number the Stars, and are gearing up for our STEM Extension Activity. A letter is being sent home today explaining what the project is, what your student needs to bring in by Monday 10/24, and providing background for the basis of the project. I look forward to seeing the creativity your students will no doubt display! I have attached the letter below for your convenience. Our next novel is going to be Hatchet. We will be spending time researching the author, the setting of the story, and the animals that appear within the story. Many students have shared with me that they already have read this book and are excited to read it again! Reading Counts goals will be set in class on Friday 10/21. Look for the reading log to come home with your student tomorrow! Important Dates
As you are likely aware, there is no school Thursday or Friday this week. Please be safe! I am not assigning any homework, we will pick up where we left off on Monday!
Hello Everyone! We are half way through Number the Stars and I gotta say, we are loving it! Students are engaged with the story line and reacting appropriately to events as they unfold. We are still discussing the impact that setting has on the story line along with proper usage of verbs in our writing. Student blogs are coming along very nicely! We will be posting a new blog post on Thursday of this week. Be sure to ask your student to show you their blog! We have a lot of events coming up so check out the attachments below this message. As always please email me ([email protected]) with any questions or comments! Important Dates
