The latest News: This week we will be focused on the following: In Writing, we will be working on creating powerful narratives. Students will be working on putting creative leads, transitional sentences and creative closings in a narrative that contains a FLASH BACK. (A powerful author’s tool that allows the author to fill in details of a story) In Science, we will be learning where and how the process of photosynthesis takes place. The quiz will be Friday and a study guide is embedded in the classroom power point to help students prepare for the quiz. (The quiz will be 9/25) Weekly Announcements: 9/28/2015

The best way to help your child prepare for the quiz on Friday is to use the study guide embedded in the “Ecosystems” power point. ALSO… the last card in the power point is full of computer resources to help you and your child learn concepts for the quiz RETAKE POLICY : A retake quiz is available every Monday for anyone who wants to increase their last Friday quiz score. Simply bring in the old quiz with a parent signature. I will give the better of the two quiz scores…not the average. SO… please encourage your children to reach for the sky! .
