Friday August 23rd Writing Celebration- YOU ARE INVITED

You’re Invited! To a Writing Celebration. You- the parents- are invited to come to school on Friday, August 23rd, from 10:45-11:20 to celebrate your children publishing their true stories. Come to school and hear kids read their stories that they have worked so hard on and celebrate their excellent stories. Don’t forget to give yourself a little time to check in at the office on your way in. If you are attending please RSVP here.

Did you know we play board games on Tuesday in class? It’s a fun way to play without screens or electronics and get to know classmates. We play games like UNO, Jenga, Spaceteam, cards and more!

Reader’s Workshop

We just began a new short unit on Notice and Note Signposts. These are places where readers should stop and ask themselves a question about what the author is trying to tell the reader.

Writer’s Workshop

We will finish our full Unit on Narrative Writing with a celebration on Friday, August 23rd. You are invited! See above.

Math

We will finish the Unit on Area and Surface Area with an End of Unit Assessment on Wednesday. This will cover the second half of the Unit (Lessons 12-18). We will also begin the next unit: Introduction to Ratios

Science

We will begin looking at the next section for science: Body Systems.
