Manners!!

Today, our secret word is "manners!". Can you remember what we learned about manners today? When might you use your manners around the school? If you see a teacher or student who needs to pass through our line, what could you do? When someone says "Thank you!" what might you say in return? I love it when I hear some of you using good manners, even when I'm not looking (or you think I'm not looking!).

Please remember to bring your spelling sort to school tomorrow. Lots of you did your assignment and left it at home. Remember to practice your word sort words and word wall words. We will test on Friday. We will ALSO take our first reading test over the Henry and Mudge story on Friday. We will do this first one as a class, but will send the book home tomorrow to read for homework. We have studied narrative elements (story parts) this week. Can you tell the characters (who), setting (when and where), and plot (what's happening) of a story? Can you tell the narrative elements in The B.F.G.?

Tomorrow, there will be no testing. We will have a math lesson in the morning and some writer's workshop time where you get to choose what to write about. During Daily 5, we will have time to write about Sophie or the giant from our read aloud. What would you tell Sophie or the giant??

See you tomorrow! I hope you have a GREAT night's sleep!!
