A couple of quick announcements:

Chipotle bag writing contest - See the explanation and rules on this website. Ends May 31st!

Our next book - The Outsiders - starts Thursday! See our resources on this page of the Weebly. After we start chapter one together, students will be reading this on their own in and out of class, and at their own pace. There will be certain assignments that are required, but that, too, will be at the students' own pace. All work from The Outsiders is due on May 29th.




We will also be viewing the movie "The Outsiders" on June 2nd, and we need parent permission. Here is the permission slip, in case your child forgets to bring it home to ask for your signature.

    Simply email me to come into class in person or via Skype. We'd love to hear book talks (suggestions for good books) or picture books (read aloud by YOU). We hope to see you in class this year!
