January Post

We're back in the swing of things!  I hope everyone had a wonderful winter break!  Over the past few and next few weeks we will be studying traditional literature in reading.  Traditional literature includes stories such as fairy tales, folk tales, fables, and tall tales.  We have been discussing the themes in these stories and how they can apply to our own lives.  In writing we have been continuing to improve our essay writing and we will be working on writing narratives.  This week we are taking our STAAR Ready test for writing to see how much students have learned and make note of what we need to improve.  In Social Studies we have been learning about the heroes of the Texas Revolution.  One high point of interest for the students has been the Battle at the Alamo.

Thanks for your continued support!  Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or comments.
