Thanks to all of you who donated to the ALS organization. A few children wanted to bring money on Monday, so I won't make our donation until Tuesday. I'll post the video later. Ask your child to tell you about Pete Frates' video and Lou Gehrig's biography that we read today. They have had fun learning about this topic! We will do more reading about it next week!
Please return Friday Folders on Monday.
Please sign choice cards and return on Monday.
Reading Logs are also due on Monday. Students should have read at least 30 minutes four times during the week.
SS Flip Books are due Monday.
SS Chapter 1 test is Tuesday.
Have a wonderful weekend!

SS: Quick Study Lesson 4
Flip Book due Monday!
Chapter Test 1 on Tuesday!
I have been nominated to do the "Ice Bucket Challenge" in an effort to raise awareness and funds for ALS. I will be doing this tomorrow during recess! Yikes! I showed the children a video about a man named Pete Frates whose family started the Ice Bucket Challenge. Next week we will be reading Lou Gehrig's story, a non-fiction article about how ALS affects the nerves in the body and an informational article about how social media has been used for a good cause. We will be comparing and contrasting different types of writing related to the same topic.
If your child would like to make a small donation to ALS tomorrow, they may bring it to me in the morning. I told them I will match whatever they bring in. Thank you for your support!
Ssshhhh! The secret word for tonight is "secede." Not succeed! Come in and whisper it to me for a treat!
