Hello,
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. I am happy everyone who traveled made it back home safely.
The week is off to a great start. This morning we began a new book project. We read the book Born Yesterday: The Diary of a Young Journalist by James Solheim. The book is written in the form a journal. During the rest of the week students will be writing a journal entry of what happened over Thanksgiving weekend. Today, we began a pre-writing exercise to brainstorm ideas. The goal of this project is to use detail to elaborate their writings.
Reminders:
As the weather gets colder please pack appropriate clothing for recess. We do go outside in the cold weather and snow. The only time we stay inside is during rain. Everyone needs to bring a coat for recess. Please bring hats, mittens and boots when necessary.
Have a wonderful afternoon! See you tomorrow,
Best,
Brandy (Ms. Hines)
