The week before break was busy!

Reading Workshop
We formed Clubs based on the reading goals we set last week.  Before meeting, clubs made goals.  

  



  

  


  

The next day we read with our reading partners,who are not necessarily in our club!  Then we met with our clubs to share how we did reaching our goals.  We learned how to talk to one another in our clubs.




The next day some clubs amended their steps.  After trying something once we can then think about how we can improve on it.

  


We talked about how to give feedback and then had another round of book club talks.


Intro to Blogging



 


Here are a few examples:




Our Random Acts of Kindness continue...this week we wrote and delivered thank you notes to everyone who works in the cafeteria, Cindy (our school nurse) and all of our custodial staff.   It has been really rewarding.  The people receiving the notes have been genuinely moved and are very grateful for the acknowledgement.  The kids have come back from each delivery with huge smiles-it feels good to give!!


Free Choice Fun!

 

We ended the week with School Wide Exploratories.  Ask your child what they did!

Have a wonderful week together!
