Mallory awarded Kyra our "keep the quote" last week.  A great example of Kyra demonstrating this quote is when she helped her brother, who was struggling to complete homework, at home. Instead of badgering him, she explained the importance of homework and how it will help in his future.

Mady B. led us in MMKO this morning!

Emma is our rockstar this week. She shared her 3 special things. We look forward to getting to know her this week.

We reviewed our genres by going to the school library. We went on a hunt to find book examples listed on our sheet. This was a great reminder of how our library is organized and helped many of us add to the list of books we want to read this year.

We are doing our pretests for the writing genres this week. Today students wrote the best informational story they could in 45 minutes. You could literally hear a pin drop with the concentration going on. 

Emma picked our quote this week!
