Writing Workshop: We have had a lot of fun using the collections for our persuasive writing. I will send the collections home by the end of the week. Thank you for sending them in.
Reading Workshop: We will be doing some comprehension work about characters. This week we will be paying attentions to things our character does (character actions) and things our characters say. Noticing our character actions and speech will help us to understand our character better, which should help us to understand the story better.
Assessments: I will continue to administer the DRA (Developmental Reading Assessment) this week. I have been updating their reading levels for book shopping. If your child's level has not changed yet, don't panic...it's just means it's coming soon.
Game Day: We will have Game Day this Thursday at 2:30. Thank you in advance to the Orr, Kennedy, and Reid families for coming in to run a game. It should be fun!
