We had a great first week! I loved seeing what everyone brought in their Me Bags.
Reading: We worked on building stamina during read to self. They are doing a great job. The 4th graders also started "work on writing". Our mini lesson this week was on context clues. We will continue this next week.
Writing: This week we did a quick opinion writing and a narrative. I wanted to see where everyone is with their writing so I know which areas we need to focus on.
Grammar: This week we talked about nouns. The students got into groups based on which kind of noun was written on their card. The groups then created a poster to represent their group.
Projects: We talked about the different Tribe agreements and how they look in our classroom. We also did some fun team building activities. One involved spaghetti noodles and marshmallows. The other involved stacking cups. Ask your student about these fun activities.
Specials: We have music this quarter.
Almost everyone has turned in all of their paperwork. If you still need to turn your paperwork in please send it on Monday with your child.
Don't forget to send in $1 with your child if he/she would like to wear any kind of socks or tights during this quarter.
Our classroom gets cold during the day. It would be a good idea to bring a school approved sweatshirt to wear in class.
We still need a PE parent on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3:30-4:00. If you are available please send me an email. tmoon@oasisacademyfallon.us
