January Update

Here is an update of what has been going on in Mrs. Pomije's room.

Writing Groups:

January is flying by this month. The writing students have just finished their "Monster For Sale" poster where the group worked on describing with details.

We have now moved on to working on a variety of grammar lessons. We continue to do our daily journal writing. They have some great imaginations:)

Reading Groups:

4th graders:
They continue to work on their sight words.
We just finished a story about Bleep and Molly.
We are not reading about a mouse named Patty who has unique qualities.

6th Grade Morning:
This group chose the book When Zachary Beaver Came to Town. Ask them about it. It starts as some kids in a small town picking on a boy who is overweight and then turns into a great friendship story.

6th Grade Afternoon:
This group chose the book The Year My Parents Ruined My Life. Is is about a 6th grade girl who had to move from where she was popular, warm, had many things to do and had a cool boyfriend to a snowy town where she is a nobody. Ask your son or daughter so see what they think about the story.


Well, that is all for now.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
I will see you at conferences:)
