February 11, 2013

I was trying to think of something clever to title this week's website update, but I was unable to come up with anything.

The biggest thing coming up in our lives is the State Writing test in March. We have been writing like crazy people in all of our classes.
       In math we are always explaining why.
In science I hear that there is a big writing assignment being completed at home.
      In social studies we have finished writing about the atomic bomb and WW II.
In reading we are working on our literature circles and comparing and contrasting personal accounts for the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
      Finally in english, we are working on narrative writing.

I have been collecting our writing from throughout the year. This portfolio will be coming home next week with our latest 2 practice writing tests. Please look over the hard work your child has completed and return the folder to school. 

I will also be posting tips to help writers in the weeks before the test. 
Thanks, 
Mrs. Kennedy
