Week of April 2nd

Thank you to everyone who contributed to our newspaper and magazine collection!!!

Last week we studied the Inverted Pyramid Writing Style, Leads, and the 5 W's.  Students deconstructed newspaper leads and even wrote a few of their own.

We are in the process of completing Letters to the Editor.  Students brainstormed some 'hot topics'.  We worked as a class to fill in our 4 Square Template and now students will complete the actual letters on their own.

D.E.A.R. time is still very important.  Please make sure your child has a book with them every day.  When we read and summarize in class-there is no reading homework that night.

BUT

There is a Vocabulary test this Thursday.  Everyone has a handout with those words on it. STUDY, STUDY, STUDY!!
