Writing:  We will be learning about the 6 traits of good writing.  We have reviewed the Conventions trait (capitals, punctuation, spelling, etc.) and the Ideas trait (adding details),  We just completed the Word Choice trait and we are now on to Voice. 

Reading:  We are wrapping up  our novel study this week on the book, Tuck Everlasting, by Natalie Babbitt.  We will culminate the study by watching the Disney movie of the same title.  You can read the Focus on the Family (Plugged In) review here: https://www.pluggedin.com/movie-reviews/tuckeverlasting/

Please keep up a regular reading habit.  It is one of the biggest predictors of success (https://youngreadersfoundation.org/importance-of-reading/).  

Oral: Students did a great job with their science presentations last week!

Spelling and Vocabulary: Spelling test every Friday.  Words are posted in Google Classroom (GC).
