Weekly Newsletter

We had a wonderful, exciting week.

On October 9, 2012 at 6:00 p.m. please come to my class for math night. I will explain to you what AMSTI is and show you some of the activities your students are completing in class this year. I will also show you how to play a game. Please come. This will be very helpful.

We started reading the book The One and Only Ivan in the Global Read Aloud this past week. The students are very excited. I am reading the book using the computer right now until we get the book on the Nooks. The students blogged about the characters and the setting last week. I believe they are learning a lot about writing and they do not realize it at this time.
