Reading

We are reading "A Cricket in Time Square" this week.  The project for this book is a diorama.  Your student will construct a diorama of one of the main events of this book. They will make a 3-dimensional scene, including models of characters, the setting, and objects. A shoebox makes a great place to build a diorama.  Then they will write a description of the scene.  Project is due Feb 12, 2020.

Thanksgiving program 

For the Thanksgiving program our class is doing Squanto. Your child received their lines on Wednesday. They should have been placed behind the Reading tab in their binder. Please allow time for your child to rehearse their lines. We will practice at school, but getting extra time outside of school will be helpful as well.
