Character Building Chess Club We had two good first sessions of chess club last week. It will be interesting to see if the students still remember what they learned last week. We will continue to work on learning all of the rules and hopefully get a game in also this week. Remember Mondays are for students whose last names begin with A-G and S-Z. Wednesday's club is made up of students whose last names begin wtih H-R.

Next week our story is “Finding the Titanic” by Robert D. Ballard. The reading strategy that we'll focus on is text organization. Many non-fiction author's organize their selections in time order. They also use features such as headings, pictures, captions, and charts to help the reader better understand the information.
