Reading: We worked more on Stuart Little and will finish up the book this week. The following week, we will watch the Movie. This will cover a standard where the students have to compare and contrast a book to a movie. 

Writing: 5th Graders finished up their first narrative and will work on Language Standards next week. 4th grade will finish up language standards they have been working on and will start writing an opinion paper next week.

Projects: Students finished up writing all of their paragraphs and have been working on their maps. We will finish up the maps on Monday and part of Tuesday. Students will also practice their presentations on Tuesday afternoon. On Wednesday, we look forward to seeing all parents for their presentations from 2:15-3:00. Students will also present their maps to the different grades on Thursday.

Auctions: We will conduct auctions this week because it is the last week of the first quarter! I can't believe how fast the first quarter has flown by. If you have any auction items that you would like to donate feel free to send them in, we still have a lot of items left from the last one. 

Scholastic Orders: The last day for the October orders will be this Thursday, October 15. 

Parent/Teacher Conferences: You should have all gotten an email for signups. Please let me know if you did not receive this. Looking forward to meeting with you all!

I hope you all are having a great weekend!
