Writing: We will continue discussing ideas for our personal narrative stories. We want to come up with specific "seed ideas" instead of general "watermelon ideas." We are writing our ideas in our "seeds" notebook.
Reading: We are working on building stamina during Read to Self. As a class we are up to 13 minutes of uninterrupted reading. We will be learning and practicing Work on Writing and Read to Someone this week.
Lead Time & Theme: We are focusing on Habit #1 Be Proactive. We will discuss what we have control over and how we should react to situations. We will practice working as a team and finish up our teamwork unit.
Counseling: We will have counseling every other Thursday, starting this week, with our school counselor Mrs. B.
Reminder: No School Friday, September 2 & Monday, September 5
