Good
afternoon parents,
I
hope you all had a wonderful week!
Next
week in…
Reading: We will be
discussing firsthand and secondhand accounts. We will read several examples of
each account.
Word
Work:
We will continue to discuss conjunctions. There will be an assessment on
Friday, November 15th. Students will receive their lesson 8
vocabulary words. The quiz will be THURSDAY, November 21st. I will post these on my blog as well.
Writing: We will
continue to work on opinion writing and using the OREO strategy to organize our
essays.
Homework: Students
should bring home their word work journal each night and study their vocabulary
words as well as review our other word work concept each week. Please help
remind students to bring their journals back to school each day as we do use
them on a daily basis. Students should also read for at least 20 minutes each
night. Please remind your students to work on their book reviews.
Reminders:
- Please
sign and return permission forms for the Fire Safety Village as soon as
possible. If you would like to be a chaperone on our Fire Safety Field
Trip on December 3rd, please let me know. We can only bring
one, so if there are multiple parents who want to come, I will do a name
drawing. Let me know by Monday, November 11th if you are
interested in attending.
- As a
reminder, students should return their graded work packet that is sent
home in their Thursday folder each week. These packets should be signed
and returned by Tuesday of the following week. The graded work should
remain stapled to the slip of paper.
- Please
remind your students to wear their class t- shirt on Monday along with pants
with a pocket for our Veteran’s day performance.
Let
me know if you have any questions or concerns. I hope you all have a fantastic
weekend!
