Friday Updates

Words Their Way - We took our first Words Their Way test today. The kids know how those work now and it goes very smooth. I will get those corrected and back to the kids on Monday morning. I like to look over them early in the year so they know where they made their mistakes and how to make corrections.

Things Coming Home - There are two different handouts coming home tonight and school pictures! One of the sheets is for youth bowling at Tower Junction and the other is for Boys Scouts.

Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing - We will be finishing Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing in the next day or two. If is a classic that is very funny. I like to find books that lead the students into more books in either that series or from that author. It seems several kids are interested in reading the next book in the series.

I forgot the actual order of the series, so here it is:

1.  Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing

2.  Superfudge

3.  Fudge-a-Mania

4.  Double Fudge

5.  Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great (not exactly a sequal as it focuses on Sheila and not Peter and Fudge)
