Fabulous Frolics with Homophones Friday

It was a busy day here in 201!   Today's main project centered around homophones.  Students may sometimes groan when asked to do a writing project. That didn't happen today.  The stories they created show how much they've grown!  We spent more than an hour on our tales and they are fabulously creative.  Stories feature knights in the night,  cool winds that blew through a light blue sky, aunts who have ant problems, princes wearing prints who reign in the rain,  a girl who sails to a shoe sale, pairs of pears who are pared, and a barefoot bear. I could go on an on, but it is Friday, so I won't.  Ask your child about his or her story!


Reminders:
Next week is a busy one!

  • Field Trip money and forms are due on Tuesday morning.   
  • On Wednesday, we will take the CPS Reach Assessment.   We have been preparing all year!
  • On Thursday, we will travel to the Planetarium.   Bring a bag lunch.  Please let me know if you would like to volunteer.
  • On Friday, we will have our Marble Maze Showcase.  We will be in the CAC from about 11:00 until 12:45.  Parents, Please join us.
  • Field Day is June 12.  A letter is going home today.  

Thanks to Alanna's father for helping us with our June bulletin boards.  201's work is again featured strongly this month.  Come and check out The Grand Canyon: A Trail Through Time and our Amusement Park blueprints.
