Our mystery readers at the very end of March were not forgotten! Thank you to Mr. Delikat, Mrs. Frisen, and Mrs. McCoy for taking time to visit our classroom and read aloud a story!
All-Star of the Week
David was our fantastic All-Star last week. He enjoyed sharing pictures of his family with the class and items from his sharing sack. The class loved listening to his favorite book, The True Story of the Three Little Pigs. David ended his week with compliments from his peers and a special lunch with his parents.
International Festival
The students did an outstanding job at the 2016 International Festival! We were so proud of their hard work as we watched them perform on stage! Their costumes were impressive, and we loved tasting the delicious foods from the many different countries! Check out the slideshow below to enjoy some photos from the festive event. A big thank you to Mr. Lee for taking so many wonderful pictures!!
Writing Workshop
Students have finished their final country reports. We will grade them using a rubric, which we will send home along with the country repatriate at some point. For now these fantastic reports are hanging in the hallway outside our classroom door.
Last week we reviewed personal narrative writing. Students worked in their writer's notebook to write a personal narrative with the various skills we've taught this school year, including: strong lead, organized paragraphs, dialogue to elaborate, transition words, internal story (character's thoughts), careful word choice, and an ending to wrap up the story.
