We are continuing into our Opinion Paragraphs this week. We will call them and use a graphic organizer called OREOe - Opinion, Raison, Évidence et Opinion Encore. This week we will finish up our work on on our Mid-Unit writing task to be turned in for feedback and support. I'm looking forward to reading and helping with next steps in our writing. There will be many opportunities to share opinions and evidence to support our ideas and better support our learning. Ask your child all about our OREOe learning!

In reading, we will continue with character comprehension and analysis. We have finished our Read-Aloud, a wonderful novel called Réfugés, which follows the lives of 3 different children who have to flee their homes due to conflict. The inspiration was amazing and the students really enjoyed learning from different perspectives!

This week, we continue our Phonemic modules. Students will be immersed with French sounds/phonemic awareness and be able to practice this in class using their notebooks and whiteboards. Ask your child all about this, this upcoming week! with the second part. This will help with creating small reading groups to encourage and boost our reading fluency and comprehension.

Semaine 25 - Utilisation du « g » à côté d’un « e » ou d’un « i », le « g » sonne /j/

We will continue our weekly word list for a spelling test at the end of the week. Each list will contain various words with a common phonemic theme. Lists will be provided on paper on Mondays and shared on Google Classroom for students and on my classroom website. Please help your child review the words and help them prepare for the test on FRIDAY. Ten words will be chosen at random for the test. GOOD LUCK! The words can be found here.

Our library days will be DAY 2. This will be this MONDAYS!
