In reading some of us read how the word frindle was invented. A frindle is a pen. We are continuing to practice all of our reading skills with the story. Our written response answers are improving, but we will continue to practice these. Answers must begin with words from the question and have at least two details from the story.
Some students are reading The Landry News since they have already read the other story. They have learned about Cara who publishes her own newspaper and makes a teacher very anger with her first edition. We will be discussing the freedom of the press and other constitutional issues with this story. All students will finish these stories next week with a quiz.
Thank you to all the parents who came to conferences to discuss their child's progress this year. I feel I have a better understanding of the students and hopefully answered any questions and concerns you had. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any other questions or issues throughout the year.
Have a great weekend!
Mrs. Stratton
Parents need to fill a child's bucket of self-esteem so high that the rest of the world can't poke enough holes to drain it dry.
