Week in Review by Jenna

Dear parnets and follwing students,

This has been a really fun week! We had done a lot of fun stuff!
Today we have our fall harvest party. We also have a spelling and reading test.
Which we had a pretest for on Monday. We have a story that we are reading in class.
It is called Sarah, Plain and Tall. We finished the book yesterday.On Wednesday
we had a field trip. We went to Orchestra Hall. I loved the part when all of the
skeletons came out! After reading workshop we are doing our presentations.
That is were you dress up as your character and give information about them.
The rest of the day will be really fun!!!!!!

From,

Jenna
