Publishing our First Stories and More

This week we worked hard as writers learning to go back and make our stories better to publish them.

October Chicken Soup With Rice Poem and Activity


Working hard on building good reading habits!

 


Library News:
We listened for keywords, spelled, and figured out all the answers to our clues to "breakout" of a locked box that had our first Global Readaloud book in it! 
We'll be doing an author study of Australian author Mem Fox over the next few weeks :)




The class did such an amazing job during our surprise Fire Drill that we stopped and had a little free time!!






Kicking off WIN time!
The whole Voyagers team got together.  We read a book about persevering.  Then we talked about how we will break up into four groups to work on our reading skills for the next several weeks.  The four teachers are Shannon Spellman, Michelle Filardi, Kate Woods, and me.  We will each lead a small group 3 times a week for about 30 minutes.



We celebrated our first October Birthday
