Happy Wednesday!
We are getting in the groove for the week after a long weekend! I hope you were able to enjoy the extra day with your kiddos. Don't forget that report cards will come home at the end of this week.
During our new Unit of Inquiry, there will be lots of Social Studies integrated into our small group reading time. There will likely not be as many traditional books come home. For example, in small group next week, we are going to study the legend of how Rome came to be. There will certainly be evidence of their learning, but it will not always look the same. I can't wait to get started!

Be sure to ask your student about this week’s happenings! We will...
- Use mentor authors as inspiration to write a class story. We will eventually PUBLISH this book as a hardback. Watch for information in the coming weeks.
- Dive into problem solving in Unit 3 of Investigations. We will pre-assess to determine enrichment needs as well.
- Introduce our new Unit of Inquiry about Ancient Civilizations. Look for the newsletter by Friday.
- Have new word study lists. Please be sure to study at home!
We’re ready for a
great week!
