Due
Tuesday, April 2, 2013
Dear Parents:
I hope you all have a fun and safe
spring vacation. Instead of the normal
writing assignment, I have attached an optional
activity. Students will be given extra
credit if they write a sentence or two with their handmade quill pens (with
parent’s help!) and homemade ink. The peacock quill has
been given to your child. The
“How-to-Sheets” are attached to this letter.
The writing is due on Tuesday, April 2, if your child wants extra
credit.
I’ve also attached a
Scholastic News “Extreme Plants” for reading and the graphing activity for
practice. This may be used for RAH
minutes one day. It is due on Tuesday,
April 2.
Continue reading with your
child for 30 minutes each day and recording it in the RAH folder. In
reading we are reading non-fiction, informational texts, learning about main
idea and supporting details.
Falcon Fast Facts are
now on the RAH folders. Have your child
work on Xtra Math or flashcards for a few minutes. Mark your initials by Falcon Fast Facts on
the RAH folder each day.
Please continue to have your child use SumDog. If you need the
password for SumDog or Xtra Math, please let me know.
