Crakenstein Week!

Hello all!

Red, Yellow, and Orange Groups: 
As we are gearing up for Halloween, we are reading the book Crankenstein this week. 


While it may seem that it goes along with a Halloween theme, it's actually about our feelings and things that make us happy and sad.  We will be doing several journal entries this week and talking about those emotions.  If you would like to watch a read aloud online, you can click HERE

There will not be a vocabulary section on the comprehension quiz this week.

Green Group:  They will continue to read Edward Tulane and work through the text with various activities.

ALL READING CLASSES:  I have made a bright green reading log for each class.  The only reading homework for the next two weeks is to read one AR book (that is on their level) and take a test on it the following day.  Because AR is designed to be individualized, each child has their own level and their own goal.  I have written their level on the reading log and I have also put their goal for the nine weeks.   These reading logs will be due Monday, October 31 and will be worth 5 Dojo points!  I will also do random spot checks so the students can earn Dojo points that way.  If you have any questions about the reading log, please email me.  I will be more than happy to help!
