Week of February 3, 2014

Greetings all,

I hope everyone is recovering from the Snow last week.  What a whirlwind! 

Here's what we are working on this week:

Reading
Reviewing Nonfiction text features.  Students were quizzed on these features: Caption, Heading, Diagram, etc.

Comparing Characters in the story.  We are reading the book: Stellaluna and comparing characters.

Writing:
We reviewed Irregular Verbs and practiced writing persuasive letters to adults (Mr. Dowd, Mom and Dad, and Mrs. Gamble for example)

Social Studies:
We have started our focus on Jackie Robinson and continuing studying Civil Rights.  The students will create Jackie Robinson decorative baseball cards and researched facts.

***Parents, if at all possible...We are in need of sanitatary wipes,pencils, and note for the classroom.  Any generous souls please feel free to send them in!
