3/23/09

What a great day!

I love Mondays! We are together all morning and we get so much accomplished!

Reminders: Connor Prairie notices were sent home today with homeroom groups. Please look for them in blue folders.

Language Arts: Today in Language Arts we took our spelling pre-test, reviewed our new vocabulary, read a play aloud, and discussed articles in grammar. We even took about 40 minutes to work with our reading buddies. We finished up our morning by listening to our read aloud and either working on the finishing touches of our published books or independent reading.

Homework:
***Published book forms were passed out today in language Arts. They are due on Wednesday of this week. Please send them in on time so that we can get our order ready by the dead line.
***Spelling- test and cursive- Friday
***Biography project- due on May 15th. Please check your book with Mrs. Suddarth prior to getting started.
***Read- We need a lot of minutes this week if I am going to be a human banana split!
***No fluency and Flow this week. Your minutes should reflect the extra time...

Until tomorrow...
