As I was looking over our schedule for the week, I have decided that we will not be covering a Reading Selection from the text book this week. This means there will be NO Selection Test on Friday. I have gathered up several short readings that I think the kids will enjoy! These will be read/discussed in class, and each will include a follow up activity. We will still be incorporating some interesting vocabulary and working on skills such as: compare and contrast, identifying main idea, and character analysis. I really think they are going to be surprised and, hopefully, have a lot of fun with Reading this week! Be sure to look for the stories to be coming home each night. They can CERTAINLY read them to you each night and it will count towards their 20 minutes.
We will still be covering a unit in Spelling. There will be a test on Friday. ;)
The Fifth Grade will be reading at Mass on Friday, Nov. 1. Please join us in celebrating in the gym at 9:40.
As always, thank you for helping my first year at DeSales one of the most memorable so far!
Happy Reading,
Mrs. Rosenberg
