Hello! I hope everyone had a great weekend! I am excited for our first full week of learning!

Here is what's happenings this week:

Writing: We will decorate our writer's notebooks tomorrow. We will also begin our first writing unit. In this unit, the students will write a realistic fiction piece.

Reading: This week we will work on the expectations during reading workshop. We will practice building our reading stamina. It is important the students are able to independently choose a just right book and stay focused on their reading for longer periods of time.

Word Study: We will use this time to continue building relationships and practicing classroom expectations. They will also take the beginning of the year spelling assessment. I will use the data from their test to form spelling groups.
