October 17th-21st:Wrapping up Literature Circles Friendship Unit

October 17 - 21 I hope everyone is coming back to school relaxed and rejuvenated because it is time to get down to business.  This week we will be finishing our first round of literature circles.  All students should be on track to finish their book by Friday.  The group's Notice and Note Mural and ABC book pages are due on Friday as well.  Hopefully students have been working on Quizlet at home; they should have EIGHT sessions completed and signed by Friday.  (I have scheduled class time for three sessions this week for those who need it.) A couple things you can do to help your student be successful in Language Arts: 1. Check Power School regularly.   2. Make sure your student is reading each day at home for 30 minutes. 3. Share your reading life with your student.   THANK YOU so much! Our anticipated schedule: MONDAY 10/17  BOOK #8 is Due!
