Good evening,
We have been busy this week. The students finished up reading "Night of the Twisters" and are working on their test. Next week will watch the video and look for the similarities and differences between the book and movie.
In centers the students are working on Words Their Way, Read Theory, and Tic Tac Snow. Tic Tac Snow is anproject where the students need to pick three of the nine offered activities. They are to finish the three and encouraged to do more actives for extra credit. Here is just a few of the activities: watch and critic a movie, interview a family member, read everyday for 20 minutes, read an article and answer comprehension question, come up with an invention idea, perform five acts of kindness and answer journal questions to go with it.
In Social Studies the students are continuing to learn more about ancient China. This week they learned about the ancient Chinese culture, social class, Taoism, Confucianism, and Legalism. Next week we will dive into the Qin and Han dynasties.
I will be introducing the ancient China STEM project next week and putting each of the students into groups to start planning out their project.
Next week is Catholic Schools Week so don't forget to remind your student to participate by dressing in the appropriate attire.
Monday: Western Day :)
As always please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns.
