Tomorrow is Day 5


Tomorrow (Monday), March 28th, will be a Day 5. As usual, students will need to dress for P.E. We continue to have P.E. outside so it is important that students are prepared for this by having their hats and water bottles each day.

Also, there is no school this Thursday due to Spring Break. School will begin again on Sunday, April 10th, and it will be a Day 2.

Here we are...acting like our characters!

Publishing Celebration Photos

Take a look at our Publishing Celebration!
Parents worked hard on their "homework" for the day...providing feedback on a nonfiction chapter book checklist. Students loved all the positive comments and praise for a job well done!

A fantastic time was had by all!
Thanks again for making our celebration a huge success!

New Student Work Posted

Thank you for joining us for the Publishing Celebration. I've had some difficulty getting the photos together, but have figured it out so I'll be posting them soon! 

In the meantime, please enjoy the students' slideshow recordings of their books. They did a fabulous job of reading fluently with expression using a clear voice. Select the "1MW Superstar Student Work" link to the right to learn from our nonfiction chapter books!
