This week, we will be working on Literary Text, Theme, Character Traits, and Setting. We will be review these skills throughout the week by completing various activities. We will have a Common Assessment next week over this semester's skills for a major grade.
Thank you to all the parents for purchasing the Vocabulary books we are using in our classrooms. Last week, the students began to work independently at home on a few of the sections, and we are completing the others here at school. We will continue to do this weekly.
We were so proud of our students for all the hard work in completing their Wax Museum project. They looked fabulous all dressed up and sharing about their person. A BIG thank you to all our parents who were able to come up and help our students create their tri-boards!!
