Writing Prompt – Quirky Traditions 5/7/2019
A tradition is a special ritual shared by a group of people. Families and groups of friends practice traditions throughout the year. These traditions might have to do with holidays, celebrations, food, the season, or quirky family practices that have been passed down from generation to generation. Is there a tradition that you share with your family or friends? Describe it.

Independent Reading (IR)
Independent reading is an important part of our class. We will begin each class with minutes of independent reading time. You are accountable for using this time wisely. Expectation: All students are required to read one grade-level appropriate book every four weeks. You will be able to choose your book, but it must be approved by the teacher. Many of you will want to read more than one book in a four-week period. That’s great! Be sure to complete the “Book Completion Form” for at least one book each month. Keep a log of your reading in your binder. Bring your book to class each day! Assignments The Independent Reading Introduction page and an End of Book Form should be completed for at least one book each month. All weekly assignments should be completed on a blank sheet of notebook paper, unless otherwise noted. You are responsible for showing your best effort on these assignments. Be neat!
