Class activities for Wednesday, February 15
Spelling: None today due to working on a student satisfaction survey.
Cursive: Ten cursive sentences, seven or more words each, are due on Fridays.
Reading: Today was a reading day in Literature Circles; some groups worked on synthesizing and making connections as reading strategies.
Writing: None today due to extra time with science. We’ll have extra time tomorrow to continue our writing project.
Our next writing project is a persuasive “letter to the editor” about a way to improve our school or community. Here is more information about this project, and here’s a checklist to help with writing the letter. This piece will be due Monday, February 27.
