READING
Next week we will be doing a personal narrative workshop. We will focus on the traits of voice, conventions, and presentation. When a piece of writing has voice it has personality. We will be writing about an experience that matters to them, focus on details and choose words that will show clearly how they feel.
We will be focusing on using possessive nouns and reviewing verbs.
Next week on Wednesday, we will be having our chapter test on measurement. Our next chapter will be on weight, mass, capacity and temperature.
Science
After spring break we will be studying the rain forest and butterflies. Next week, I will be sending home information on the rain forest poster project and rain forest animal reports. These will be due after spring break. Over the break would be a great time to get started on these projects.
Max is the Student of the Week! He likes to go snowboarding, plays the piano and fed a real giraffe. His favorite animal is a gorilla. His favorite colors are blue and gold. When Max grows up he wants to be an Actor.
Supplies Needed
