Hello Again!
Read-A-Thon
If possible, please also help your child find sponsors. Sponsors can be family and friends near or far! Donations are also always welcome! Please hang on to any money your child collects early. We will collect all donations after the Read-A-Thon has ended. Please email me with any questions you might have!
ELA
Right before the break, students will also be watching the movie to make comparisons between the novel and the movie. They will be surprised to find out how many differences there actually are!
After we finish the module, students will be doing some work on their short response writing skills. We will be reading many non fiction articles and using our RATTIC acronym to answer the questions. Having this formula will be helpful for students to answer any short response question they may come across this year!
Our next novel will be Bud, Not Buddy. More information to come in December!
The Lightning Thief Project
If your child finishes his/her project before Thanksgiving Break, he/she can bring it in on Tuesday before the break.
Social Studies
Students are also still working in Library to research a god or goddess. If your child has access to a computer at home, he/she is more than welcome to work on this!
