Today we began a new adventure.  Our switched up classrooms seem to be running smoothly, so far.  The kids are definitely a little sleepy today!  They are pretty excited about the switches and the fact that we have only 15 school days before our Winter BREAK.  We have a lot to do between now and then, however!

Upcoming events:
Spelling test: Friday
Vocabulary test: Monday
RC #6: Due today
Book order: due Friday

We are finishing up our Give It All You've Got theme.  We'll be reading Mae Jemison as our story this week. Our reading strategy this week is Main idea and supporting details.  We'll finish up on conjunctions and move onto articles and adjectives.  We are beginning a big writing assignment that will take us a couple of weeks.  We're working on introductory paragraphs, as well as not starting sentences with conjunctions.
