This week we begin Reader's Workshop. That means we'll be reading and focusing on our comprehension and vocabulary building in our texts. It also means we'll be learning how to select our own texts to learn how to apply these skills in a story we really like. Mrs. K will be going through the appropriate texts, but the spirit of these activities focus on the the connections to the characters we can make. This means students will be able to select their own novels to read as long as their classwork reflects the active reading required in middle school.
We are also continuing our learning plan meetings. Thanks to everyone who came and had such great input into teaching and learning from the children. If you would like to meet, please drop me an email so that I can schedule a time. Please bring your students to this meeting, as they are learning how to be responsible for their own goals.
Lastly, we will have an awards assembly on Wednesday, September 23, at 10am. We will be recognizing students who have worked hard in Language Arts and the lifeskill of Honesty. It just might be the whole middle school!
Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to build a bridge to learning with your child. For the latest assignments, please check moodle.
Mrs. K
