I forgot to mention...

• For the next three weeks, each child is assigned a writing assignment about a current event. You can find the directions in Google Classroom. One article will be due each Friday beginning this week, Dec 2.
• We are using www.newsela.com, www.readtheory.org, and www.digitalreadworks.org to help with reading comprehension and vocabulary development. I have assigned articles of interest on the Digital Readworks site to assist us with preparing an argument (our ELA focus this week). All three sites give great information about student progress and help inform lesson needs.
• Tutorial for ELA is on Thursdays from 3 - 4 pm. Your child should have a permission slip to attend.
