Literature Circles are Underway!

Hi everyone,

Today was our first Literature Circle meeting. All groups made a schedule for due dates over the next five weeks. Remember, you MUST finish your reading and assigned role sheet in time for each meeting. Our first group meeting is on next Monday and then all meetings will be on Fridays until Christmas time.
If you aren't sure about what to do for you role, please e-mail me at trudy.keil@hzsd.ca and I'd be happy to help explain in more detail. We will have more instruction on specific roles over the next few weeks. Each role sheet does a good job of explaining what is to be done as well.

Homework for tomorrow is as follows:

1) Spelling Unit 10 as assigned on Monday
2) Math Textbook Pages 52-53 and your corrections for Pages 50-51
3) Bring supplies to work on your Mrs. Frisby project tomorrow

Other notables:

- Hot dog sale money is due tomorrow
- Reading logs will be collected next Monday
- Please keep reminding me about your student goals if you need my assistance.
- Book orders are due next week Wednesday so I can get them here in time for Christmas

That's it for tonight!

Miss Keil

PS- I am sending a note home tomorrow for the field trip drivers with directions and more specific information about the trip.
