We are going to be writing our first story over the next week and half.  We start each new lesson with a KWO and then will work on writing the story in our own words.

Vocab cards: On Thursday students will create 3x5 cards with the vocabulary words for the week.  On one side they will write the word, and on the back, write the definition and draw a picture.  You do not need to bring the cards to school.  The vocabulary words are in the campus binder under the IEW tab. We will have cumulative tests throughout the year.
