For the Week of May 23rd

Chess Club

Chess Club has ended for this school year. It was fun watching your children progress as we went from learning the moves of the pieces to strategies to make their games better.

3rd Grade Reading with Mrs. Csorba

Mrs. Csorba's Reading Class of Magnificent Magicians invite you to our Magic Show on Tuesday from 8:30-9:30am. Don't forget to email me by Monday to reserve your seat! jcsorba@ccsd66.org! We will be working on reader's theater this week and finishing up our Magic Unit by practicing all our strategies!

4th Grade Reading with Mrs. Beseth

Next week, in addition to reviewing all reading strategies, students will be focusing on identifying the elements of fantasy and realism. Students will learn that fantasy involves events that could not happen in real life, and that realism involves events that could happen or that have happened in the past.


5th Grade Reading with Mrs. Bucklin

The week we will continue to read The Wish Giver. We will be working on vocabulary and reviewing the story using a story map.
