This will be a busy week for the students. April Jones, a local author, visited the students and shared some of her books. The students will learn firsthand what it takes to be a good writer. In addition, on Friday, the students will have an opportunity to see “Charlotte’s Web” at Mechanic’s Hall.
The students are learning how to write a persuasive paragraph. They are reading about the language used in persuasive writing. The students are also learning to back up their opinions with reasons and examples, as they share their point of views on different topics.
We have begun our Science unit on the three states of matter. They have discovered that matter is everywhere around us and is anything that takes up space. Through music and movement, the students will learn how energy affects the different states. The students will be making posters to illustrate the different states. They will also be contributing to our bulletin board in the hallway. In order to do this, however, the students will need pictures to cut out and sort into the different states of matter. If you have any magazines you could donate to the class for this purpose, it would be greatly appreciated if you can send them in this week.
Thank you, Mrs. Stech.
