This is a week of new genres! We will be starting our unit on personal essays during the writer's workshop. In reading, we will begin tackling the strategies that great non-fiction readers use. In social studies, we will finish our study of landforms and then move into a unit about our government later this week.
Here's interesting food for thought for those of you busy with after school activities. Reading is the only out-of-school extracurricular activity linked to getting amagerial or professional job later in life! So... Pick up a good book tonight!
