Language arts:
This month we are moving from studying non-fiction into a
poetry unit! We will be studying features of poetry then we will make our own
poetry books featuring original works by each student.
Also-because I am such a benevolent teacher J, I have extended the
deadline of our genre tickets project! Prizes
will still be given through this month for reading 5 and 9 books. This is,
however, a graded project, so do check up on your child’s progress!
Art:
We have a special guest coming to share a fun art project
just in time for Valentine’s day! In order to participate, your child will
need:
·
A shoebox or similar sized box
·
A paper bag
·
Glue
Time to Restock!
As we begin 3rd quarter, check with your child to
see if he/she needs a replacement for any of the following. I have had a
growing number of students needing to borrow my supplies because theirs have
disappeared or are used up!
·
Spelling/writing notebooks (1 for each)
·
Pencils
·
Glue sticks
·
Scissors
Work Check
Just a reminder for our 3rd quarter: spelling
choices/reading log entries (4/wk) are due each Thursday. Late work will be
accepted for one week then will remain an F. The biggest reason grades changed
last quarter was due to whether or not students remembered their Thursday work.
Don’t forget to check our class blog for links to spelling and reading homework
in case it is forgotten!
