Weekly News: Week 10

This week we finished the story of "Wonder!" The students loved hearing Auggie's story of fitting in with his 5th grade class. We are looking forward to reading "The Julian Chapter" and learning more about what made Julian so mean to Auggie. There's always two sides to every story!

We've also started our poetry unit in writing. We've been writing haikus, quatrains, and cinquains. As we study more types of poetry, we will eventually be creating our own poetry anthologies.

There are several things happening in the next two weeks. Please keep track of these important dates. On Monday, students should have a completed Exploration Flipbook for social studies. If students want to earn full credit it needs to be colored and their words need to be covered in Monart pen.
