Language Arts:
Today was a busy day! We reviewed possessive pronouns, listened to our read a loud, worked on a practice timed writing assessment, and switched for Vocabulary Vine where the students had a chance to read independently.
Homework:
***Don't forget about the Family Homework Project(Percussion instrument) which is due on Feb. 25.
***All Science Expo projects need to be picked up by Friday. Please make arrangements.
***Reading calendars are due every Friday during the month of February. Every student should be reading above and beyond the 4th grade requirement of 20 minutes each night. Please read over the weekend as well. If a student is not reading above and beyond their minutes or is not turning in their calendars, they will get a homework packet to work on. This additional reading takes the place of our weekly homework packet during the month.
