Today we went to the computer lab to finish typing our persuasive papers about OARS. I will be giving these papers to a volunteer at OARS and some of them might be used to persuade someone to adopt an animal!
We also started to practice our note cards for our speech today in class. Tonight you will need to look at your child's notecards and help them with anything they need to improve them. Then sign the notecard note for tomorrow. This week and next, your child needs to practice their speech for an adult three times for a total of 6 times. Each time they practice the speech, an adult needs to sign and date it and also put in some comments. The speech should be between 3-5 minutes. If it is not, your child will need to find more information at home.
Homework:
Lang Arts: Get notecard sheet signed after you show your notecards to an adult. Practice your speech at least three times for an adult at home this week, and get the practice sheet filled out.
Reading: 20 min Fang-this is the last week to bring in signed Fangs for your baseball diamond.
Spelling: study your list that you made today in class. Test is Thursday.
Other:
Bring in $1 tomorrow if you want to wear a hat during school-it is a fundraiser for Japan.
Conferences coming up on Wed. I will list the students and times tomorrow.

Today we finished up our food chains, notecards, and OARs essay. If your child needs more information for their note cards, they need to work on it over Spring Break. We will start practicing our speeches after break.
I am in need of sticky notes. I had a whole containeer of them, but they all mysteriously disappeared....we need them for our reading groups after break. If every student brought in one pack, we should be good to go.
We also finished our Voicethread presentation on the Revolutionary War. I have it posted on my blog. If it says you might now be able to view it, just x the message out and it will work-if it still doesn't work, I put a link to it under "useful links" on the right hand side of the blog page.
Homework:
Reading: 20 min for Fang-bring in your home base Fang tomorrow or after break. I will then give the names of those students to Mrs. Peterson and they will get a voucher for a Ticket to a Timber Rattlers game.
Other:
Crazy Hair Day tomorrow
11 am dismissal tomorrow
Movie tomorrow-you may bring in a snack for yourself

Today we finally finished our no excuse spelling tests for all of the grades! After Spring break we will be making our own lists of words that we missed.
We also started coming up with song names that we might use for a class skit for the talent show. Talent show try-outs are at the end of April, so I will send home a note to be signed if your students is wanting to be a part of our skit. If y our child wants to do their own act for the show, they should start to think about what they want to do, who they want to do it with, and start practicing!
Homework:
Lang. Arts. Note cards need to be done by the time you get back from Spring Break. Parents-you can ask them to show them what they have done so far so you can make sure they are on the right track. After break we will start to practice their speeches.
Science: Finish your food chain at home tonight if you didn't finish in class. We will do the paragraph together tomorrow.
Reading: Read 20 min for Fang
Music: Tell your parents what project you are working on for music class and let them know if you need any materials. Mrs. Kellnhauser will let me know when the final due date will be (after Spring Break) and I will pass it along to parents.
Other:
Green Day tomorrow
