December 5th-9th

Last week was great as we continued reading Under the Blood Red Sun. It was awesome to see students make connections and practice close-reading through Non Fiction Notice and Note strategies. We learned about watching for "Quoted Words" in informational texts through articles on the bombing of Pearl Harbor and Japanese internment camps during WWII. This was especially meaningful since December 7th is the anniversary of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. It's really cool to be able to link history to our class novel. Your students are awesome and continue to impress me with their thoughts and insights in our discussions.

Here is the schedule for next week. As always, please email me at jandi.gubler@washk12.org with any questions. Have a fantastic week!
