Mrs. Olsen's Language Arts Class:
*Reading: The students are working on the preview and prediction strategy. We read Yunmi and Halmoni's Trip as we worked on this strategy. There will be a short vocabulary quiz covering the 7 words from this story on Tues. 9/23. We will focus on this strategy as we read leveled readers next week. We will celebrate Johnny Appleseed's Birthday on Friday. Your child received a note from their homeroom teacher about bringing in a peeled, sliced, and cored apple into class on Friday 9/26. We will cook them in a crock pot to make homemade applesauce. We will also learn more about Johnny Appleseed and his important role in history!
*English: Ask your child about Mr. Morton! We are learning about subjects and predicates. We will continue to focus on this next week.
