Bookworm Angels Book Drive Update
The results are in... 5th grade donated 1,481 books, making us the grade level winners!! Although this win is a nice perk, most important is that we worked together to help others. Thank you to all who generously gave to this cause!
Subject Update:
- Spelling - The Lesson 31 pretest will be on Monday. Homework will be assigned during the week to practice the words. Both regular and challenge word tests are on Friday.
- English - We will be working on persuasive writing. Ask your student about some of our "Would you rather..." topics used for journal writing this past week. It helped us understand how to state our opinions and provide support and elaboration for them.
