Thursday!

This morning in writing, we did our first May CBM.  Then I did a lesson on redundant words.  We are avoiding these in our writing.  Students then completed their first drafts of the Picture Prompt piece.  I collected them and we will work on them more next week.

In reading today, students read 60 minutes and logged it.  I conferred with the remainder of the students.  Vocabulary Word Maps are due on Monday.

We had a spelling test today.  Students then worked on a secret "project".

Reminder:  Tomorrow is the MFA field trip.  This takes place during normal school hours.  Students need to bring bagged lunches with no glass bottles.

FYI:  May 24 at 6:30 is the 6th grade parent information night at the middle school.
