Reading-This week the 3rd graders continued working on their author study. The 4th graders continued working on their literature study assignment.
They had a Latin/Greek test on Thursday. They will receive new words on Monday.
Writing- We continued working on our narratives. The students are learning how to write a good narrative with a beginning, middle and end. They are also working on using dialogue in their writing.
Grammar- This week we learned about the different coordinating conjunctions. They learned the acronym FANBOYS to help them remember the different conjunctions.
Projects- We continued working on our catapults. Thank you to all the parents who donated items for this projects! I can't wait to see our finished projects.
Misc.
I am going to extend the book order due date until Nov.24. This will be our last book order before Christmas. If you would like to order books for a Christmas present for your child I can hold on to the books for you to pick up so they don't see them. Also you can order off any grade bookorder not just the ones I send home.
We still need a PE parent on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3:30-4:00. This will allow me time to work with individual students who are either behind or need extra help. Please let me know if one or both days work for you.
Remember there is no school on Wednesday because of Veterans' Day.
