Thank you families for joining us Thursday for our Readers and Writers Celebration! We so enjoyed sharing our reading and writing progress with you!
Our ABC Countdown continues with only 4.5 days of school till summer! This week we enjoyed running games during Eagle Field Day, silly socks and sunglasses, a talent share (readers theater and writing celebration), and built forts under our desks.
Please watch for a Summer Learning Packed coming home in your Child's Zippy Pouch Monday.
In Writing, we finished up our Realistic Fiction Book Series. Students worked extremely hard on their series and had the opportunity to share them with their loved ones on Thursday. If you were not able to make it, please take some time to have your child share their work with you. Ask them about their character, settings, problems, and solutions. Series boxes were sent home Thursday. We also took our Post-Assessment/End of the Year Assessment for Realistic Fiction. Watch for a copy coming hope next week in the back of your child's Portfolio.
In Reading, we finished our Realistic Fiction Unit, Meeting Characters and Learning Lessons. We read several books and identified the lesson our characters learned. We also saw that we can learn lessons, from our characters, so we don't have to make the same mistakes. We also shared lessons we have personally learned, so we could learn from each other. We also participated in our Readers Theater. We did our best to read with expression and fluency.
In Word Study, we learned to drop the "silent e" before adding a suffix and to change the "y" to an "i" before adding a suffix (but not when adding ing). Please learn the new heart words "sure" and "laugh".
In Math,we reviewed Units 1-7 and then took our End of the Year Math Assessment. Watch for it coming home in the back of your child's Portfolio next week.
