Happy Weekend!

Today students practiced our Readers' Workshop expectations.  Students are learning that reading is a lot like running or doing push ups-- we have to build up our stamina in order to read longer and stronger.  To help build our reading stamina, we can...
  •  ... use the 5 Finger Rule to pick a just right or good fit book
  • ... ask ourselves, "Does my reading sound the way I talk?"
In Writers' Workshop, students spent time decorating their writers' notebooks.  They came out great!

In Math Workshop, we set expectations and practiced procedures for rotating during workshop.


Homework
  • Have a wonderful weekend
Reminders
  • Please check backpacks tonight.  Students have forms that need to be signed and returned to the school at your earliest convenience.

Mrs. O'Neill
