Next Week

Language Arts
We are close to the end of the Modifiers unit. Students are learning how adjectives and adverbs can turn their writing from dull to WOW!

*Adverbs Quiz on Wed., 2/27
*New project will be introduced on Thur., 2/28...stay tuned.

Reading
Voting for the best Rebecca Caudill is fast approaching. Students are currently reading their third novel from the list of nominees. In fact, some have read even more than the three required for class. It will be a difficult choice! My current pick is Home of the Brave by Katherine Applegate. This book is unique because it's written in all prose. Happy Reading!

*3rd Accerelated Reader Test for Caudill Book Due 2/11
