LITERATURE  

We have begun reading “Tuck Everlasting” as our last novel.  It is a short book with some interesting themes.  [Would you like to live forever?]  I believe the students have been enriched with the selections we have read this year.  They have responded well!

 

LANGUAGE ARTS 

For our last project, we will be writing a book for Kindergarten and 1st Grade students.  We will do much of the work in the classroom, with the final copy typed.  There is a rubric I passed out on May 7.  Age appropriateness, vocabulary, content are all very important.  It is due May 21 and I hope to present these to the two classes the last week of school!
