March 25, 2011

This weeks spelling packet for Poppa's New Pants will be sent home Monday and due on Friday. A note explaining the animal dioramas will also be sent home on Monday. Students are working on the reports in class and will finish up paragraph 5. I will then send their rough draft home for you to edit, probably on Tuesday. Please sit with your child and look over what they have written. Many have done a great job and others still may need to find a few specifics. The final draft of their report should be typed at home. If this is an issue, please talk to me and we can work something out. The final report will be due on April 15 (tax day, I know!) along with the diorama.

On a side note, I am still missing several Literature Circle books. Please check around the house for any books that either say Maraldo on the front or have a Lexile sticker on the back. I will have students take an AR Star test in the computer lab on Tuesday and will send home their current reading level shortly after.

Thank you for some of the wipes and Kleenex that came in this week. I can always use pencils too. It's amazing how fast they go.

Have a great weekend!
