For the Week of January 10th

Chess Club

There will be no Chess Club this week. I will be sending home new forms to sign up for Chess Club. Be watching for these to come home soon.

3rd Grade Reading with Mrs. Csorba

We will continue to work on the reading strategies of monitoring and clarifying what we read as well as distinguishing facts and opinions while starting a novel study. Our new novel will be Stone Fox. We will also be reviewing various other reading strategies to comprehend our reading materials.


4th Grade Reading with Mrs. Beseth

This week the children will work on identifying the problem and solution of a story as they are reading. Most stories involve a problem for the characters to solve. The solution to the problem may come after others have been tried.


5th Grade Reading with Mrs. Bucklin

We will be learning more about the structure of a story through story mapping! Our class will read the story Elena, from our anthology. We will also be having a vocabulary quiz on words from this selection on Monday, January 10th.
