Hello families~

Here is a quick run-down of this week:

Reading:

• We continued working on filling out our reading logs completely
• Writing well about reading
• Building stamina
• Choosing “just right” books
• Scholastic News ~ Lava on Hawaii and it’s impact

Writing:

• We continued our personal narratives
• Writers learned how to dream the dream of their story
• Editing for punctuation, complete sentences and fluency
• Telling their story by zooming in to keep their audiences attention

Science:

• Making observations of salt crystals that we created from evaporating water from salt
• Develop a procedure to separate a dry mixture of gravel, salt and powder and the teams were very successful in their challenge.

Genius Hour:

• A wonderful opportunity to foster curious minds. Please ask your child what they researched today.

Math:

• By Monday, you should have received an email from your child’s math teacher.

Tie-Dye:

• Thanks for the $5 contribution to help pay for the costs of the supplies.
• I am looking for parents to help with tie-dying our t-shirts next Thursday. I am looking for a few volunteers. I have not decided if it will be in the am or pm until know if I have volunteer.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend and please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
