Legends

We have been working hard to practice spelling words for tomorrow's test.  It's a challenging word list, but I feel as though we have done lots of practice and the class should do very well on the test!  Students completed Spelling practice pages 77-78 today, and we also played Spelling City games as a review.

This week we also continued to discuss different types of narrative stories, including legends.  We've been reading different legends together in class, and students have the independent assignment of reading one story from each narrative genre by Friday.  The genres include folk tale, fable, fairy tale, pourqoui tale, tall tale, and legend.  Students also tried out their talents at writing a legend. 

Six Flags Reading Club (also Optional) is due February 16. 

Block Two is completing our Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing as a novel study this week.  

Tomorrow morning we have a very special "Character Counts" assembly that the kids will LOVE!
