We Are Back!!

What a Fantastic Spring Break! I hope you are all rested and had a lot of fun. Rusty from School Tools was in town to work on the book that he and I are writing so that was super exciting! If I could, I would like to encourage you to read Rusty's Facebook page. There is a link on his site. There are many very powerful quotes and youtubes that all deal with character and the six traits that I spend a great deal of classtime reinforcing.

This week we will be back to business. We are in the last quarter of 4th grade. It is time to get ready for the responsibilities and accountability pieces needed to be successful in the 5h grade. We will continue to write nightly in our journals. However, they will now be exchanged and read by another classmate. The reader will give a specific compliment and a positive suggestion of something to work on the next time. We will exchange journals daily. I will continue to look at the journals as well, but will no longer be commenting. I am so amazed at the growth I have seen over the past two quarters when it comes to writing. Wow!!!

The Midwest Region states and capitals test will be taken this Friday. The format will be the same as the ones in the past. Please continue/begin to study these.

Cya tomorrow!
