Tonight's homework is to finish working on the expert animal graphic organizer for the web page research. Students should complete it until it says to write a summary. We will do that tomorrow in class and in order to write it, students will need to have the main idea for each section written which are a part of the web page research.
On another note, this week in Thursday folders you'll find a letter to you describing the new spelling routine we will be doing in ELA class. Another addition of our ELA class will be three 40-minute blocks of writing. We will primarily be writing RACE responses using multiple texts like what is expected on the PARCC test. Lastly, since this is the first of the month, I'm conferencing with students regarding their AR goals. Next week in Thursday folders, you'll find their AR goal they set for themselves and the AR report cards showing their quizzes and results from both November only as well as the entire year. You'll also see a note jotted down that indicates their next step to try to accomplish their goal for December. Please support your child in their ELA class by checking to see if they completed their spelling page for the day and asking them about their AR quizzes (they have multiple opportunities to take an AR test every week). Thank you for your support.
