From Ms. Fenwick
Spelling: No Spelling this week! Cursive book pages 75-100 is due on May 2nd.
Reading: Our Genre Bingo Card will be due on May 16th! Don't forget that a Reading Check-In on eCLASS is due every Friday under Fourth Nine Weeks.
Book Clubs: All of my reading students have been assigned a "Book Club" book to be counted as either a "Teacher Assigned" book or any needed genre on their Genre Bingo Cards. Book Clubs will meet every Tuesday and Friday during your child's reading time for the rest of the school year for a total of 6 meetings (we had our first today). Students will have chapters to read and a job sheet to complete in preparation for these meetings. These 6 completed job sheets will count as 15 points each and an end of book summary will be counted as 10 points to add up to a 100 point test grade. Their novels should go home and come back to school with them every day as they will have some time to read in class, but also may need to read at home to stay caught up for each book club meeting. Our next meeting is this upcoming Tuesday, May 3rd.
Writing: We will review dialogue using a book we will read together, Twilight Comes Twice. We will also finish planning our Autobiographies and begin writing them.
