Book Talk-extended

Dear parents,

 I have decided to extend the Book Talk project for this nine weeks until Friday, March 4th instead of Monday, February 28 th. I really want the kids to be focused on writing next week and after thinking about it I feel that having the project the day before the big test would be a distraction. Students need to be prepared to present on March 4th during reading block.

Ps. Many parents have emailed me to get the weekly vocabulary words from weeks and weeks ago. The words are on our website as far back as January 13th.


Don't forget: Saturday is Pioneer Days. If your child is walking in the parade with us please meet at Belle Isle city hall between 8:15-8:30. Students should have their poster ready. It would be nice to wear CCA spirit shirts or uniform shirts under the poster. The writing workshop is from 10-12:30. Right now I only have 5 rsvps from our class.

Thanks.
Mrs. Downey
