Last week was busy with the end of 3rd quarter. On Friday 3Q Report Cards were sent home. I would appreciate it if it could be looked over, signed, and sent back as soon as possible. We also had our 3rd Quarter AR party on Friday. The kids seemed to have a blast. This year is the first year we have supported our kiddos goal setting for reading with a party. It seems to be working. Each student set their own reading goal that they think they can achieve. Then each student must read books and take quick AR tests to test for comprehension. The point allotment depends on how many questions were answered correctly.
Also on Friday, a field trip permission slip was sent home. This year on April 19th we will be going to Martha Lafite Nature Sanctuary for the Collasal Fossil program. One adult may attend per student. Students are $8 and adults are $5. The permission slip and money are due on March 23rd. This is by far my favorite field trip we have taken!
This week's learning targets are;
Reading- reading The Paper Crane working on questioning, new vocabulary(host, hospitality, gratitude, and overjoyed)
Writing- Nonfiction reading and writing, Kate and Pippin: An Unlikely Friendship and How to Be a Friend, looking at interview questions and interviewing partners to write about someone
