Writing About Our Reading
Here is a sneak peek of students sharing their writing. Sometimes it is much trickier to explain our thinking in writing than it is to share our thinking out loud, so we have been working to develop this skill in our Reader's Notebooks. I love listening to these students share their thinking.
Track and Field
Our School Track and Field day will be held on Monday. Please make sure your child comes prepared for a day in the sun with a water bottle, sunscreen, hat and proper attire for that day. We have been practicing high jump, long jump, standing long jump, throwing and even learned how to take part in a relay race! Here is a picture of us learning how to properly "hand off" the baton to the next teammate on our team using the bases on the baseball field. It was the perfect "mini-track" to demonstrate how a relay race goes, as this was the first time our class has experienced this style of race.

We are having a "Bring a Book, Take a Book" event at our school from June 16-19th. This is a chance for kids to trade their gently used books for some new books to read over the summer months. Students can bring 1-5 books before June 15th. A note has been stapled in your child's agenda with the information as well.
