Students will begin presenting their Book Talks next week. For the past two weeks, they have been given a large part of their reading class to read their book. Many have finished their books and preparing for their Book Talk. Each student knows what is to be expected and the calendar of when they will present. It is key that students practice their Book Talk several times, preferably in front of someone. Here is the schedule of who is presenting next week:
Monday: No school
Tuesday: Hannah & Dorian
Wednesday: Caleb & Lydia
Thursday: Corynne & Westin
Friday: Eli & Harrison
Next week, we will be starting a new unit by reading The Hatmaker's Sign. The skills we will be working on are making judgments/decisions, using context clues, summarizing, and learning suffixes.The new unit's theme is how we can use our talents to communicate ideas.
Even though we won't have school on Monday, Word Wall will still be on Wednesday and the story quiz will be on Friday.
On Tuesday, I sent home November's Scholastic book order. If you would like to order books for gifts and keep them secret from your child, you can send me an email to hold those books and I will keep them in my classroom for you to pick up. Book orders are due Friday, November 11th.
