Monday, Jan. 19

1.  Last couple days of Heap the honda-- donate books if you like.  Thx.
2.  Paragraph on facts about Paris ( The setting in our novel)-due Thursday.
3.  Novel project- First, remember that students are supposed to be finished reading the novel.  If they are not finished, they are behind and will get further behind.  Kids can do about 10-15 minutes a night when they have time...on their project.  Project will be due in aprox. 3 weeks.
4.  Grade 4s will work on FSA tests all week.  Eat breakfast.
5.  We are working on a short story writing unit.  Students started a creative story but more time will be given in class.  Due Friday.

Please continue to sign agendas nightly if possible.  It keeps the students on their "feet."  However, I will only be stamping them on occasion as it takes 10 minutes each morning from curriculum teaching, and when added up, that is a lot of learning time.  Hopefully, students are practising organizational and time management skills by now so that they can be responsible for their own success!
