Week of February 17 - 21

Here is what is happening this week:

Literacy:  Students are working hard on their Reader's Theater scripts.  Students are in one of five groups and have enjoyed working on practicing their lines with fluency, expression, and meaning.  We will be practicing this week with a performance on Friday.  I will be sending home a note on Monday inviting you to be the audience for our performance.  I hope to see you there!

Math:  This week students will be diving into Unit 5.  This unit focuses on telling time and graphing.  We will be engaging in several activities to gain a better grasp of these concepts.

Word Work & Writing:  In writing we are continuing to write opinion pieces.  We are writing letters about books and explaining why others should read them.  A big component to these letters is students providing evidence to help back up their opinions.  The spelling words for this week include:  they're, wrong, pretty, won't, and afraid.  Please help your child practice these words at home.

Special Events:
Tuesday:  Jump Rope 4 Heart
Wednesday:  11:30 Dismissal (PLD) & Spirit Day - Dress in ONE COLOR from HEAD to TOE
Friday:  Reader's Theater Performance
