Welcome back again! I hope you all made it safe and dry or at least with minimal damages. It's nice to be back into the routine!
We will have book fair starting next week. Students will go the library on Wednesdays. They may buy books before (with an adult) during, and after school.
We also have an author visit, Max Brallier, on September 25th. You will have the opportunity to purchase a signed book(s)that will be delivered to the classroom. You can ask Mrs. Dolan for the order form.
Reading
We started our shared read aloud. We are reading "Third Grade Angels" by Jerry Spinelli. We are tracking our thinking (in their journal) and writing down main ideas on our class anchor chart. The kiddos are doing well with reader's workshop. I can tell I have a bunch of readers! YAY! It's nice to see them so engrossed in their book.
Writing
Our focus is on ideas. We will brainstorm a list of ideas the students can write about. We will make a class list as well as an individual list the students can keep in their binder. They've been working hard on finishing their heart maps!
Social studies
Do you have a growth mindset? This week we will discuss the difference between a growth mind set and a fixed mind set. I'll post pics of our class anchor chart on our instagram page. :)
