Talking Fish

Today we started our writing study about How-To texts. We were able to learn that the reader of a how-to text has to be able to be successful at completing the task that the writing is about. We decided to put this learning to use and see if an Origami book could actually teach us how to fold a talking fish. Boy was it a hit! We made over 60 talking fish! We have another exciting lesson for writing again tomorrow, and when we get through with this week everyone will have started their very own "How-To" book.

The after school typing club started today and we learned quite a lot. Please make note that if your child is a part of the after school group they will not meet on Wednesdays. This is because of Staff meetings and Early release days.

We have started off on another wonderful week! Please remember to reread the baggy books every night (to help with fluency) and play Tens Go Fish or Turn Over Ten.
