April 28, 2017

Good Afternoon,
  As I write this post, I am sitting in the empty classroom and starring out the big window.  It is certainly nice to see the sun and blue sky.  This week we continued working on persuasive pieces.  We read the book The True Story of the Three Little Pigs.  It allowed me to focus on the idea of perspective and the students had to use evidence from the text to support his point of view.  Next week, we will write a piece that defends the wolf and how it was all a big misunderstanding.

This morning we were visited by two lambs.  A student in Mr. Greenleaf's classroom brought in his lambs to share and then brought them to each room to share.  Needless to say math class came to a stop and all attention was given to the two animals.

NOTES:

*Your child has reading homework in his/her bag.  Please make time for them to read over the weekend.

*Please read and respond in your child's Weekly News journal.

That is all for now.  I hope you have a fabulous weekend.

Tommy
