It's been a fun-filled week in Challenge Class! Here's what's been going on...
This morning our school had the distinct privilege of having Thaddeus Rex...otherwise known as Gavin H's dad...perform for our school! This was a HUGE treat for our entire student body. He shared his songwriting skills, tips and talents with us. His highly motivating and entertaining show shared the importance of reading and using our writing skills. Please be sure to ask your son or daughter about this incredible performance!!
* We completed our narrative writing papers this week! We will be working on Veteran's Day essays and poetry for Veteran's day next week.
* Author study groups collaborated this week on a group project. They synthesized information from their choice author book and the autobiography book they read a few weeks ago. Be sure to ask your child what group project they completed and how their performance went!
* We are at different points in our Explorer projects. We have a few still gathering research, some students are writing their speeches and some are in the editing stage of speech writing.
* Mark your calendars for the following dates:
~ Wednesday, November 11th: Veteran's Day Performance at CE: 9:00AM & 7:00PM
~ Tuesday, November 17th: Carmel Symphony Orchestra field trip (permission slips coming home with your child today)
