Reading:
This week we continued identifying text structure. I have been assessing, so students have been working together or independently to read and complete assignments. They took a spelling assessment on Thursday and will receive new words Monday.
Writing:
Students took two articles with similar topics and wrote their own informational paper using these articles as resources.
Grammar:
We learned the proper placement of commas in addresses. To do this, we wrote pen pal letters to Mrs. Moon's class. The students had to address the envelope correctly in order for it to mailed.
Projects:
Students finished typing their animal information and began working on their habitats. Many students are close to finishing these habitats and will begin working on their animals. I'm excited to see how they turn out.
Misc:
*New pictures
*Two weeks until spring break!
*Parent conferences are on March 31. These will be student-led.
I can't believe the 3rd quarter is just about over. Your children are so amazing - I'm not ready for them to move on to 4th grade :o(
