January News!
We had our Reading Rocks presentation on January 5. We added a Math component to our assembly - it is called Math Rolls! We learned about asking questions as we read. This is what good readers do!
We also welcomed a new student to our class. Her name is Emily. She is from Texas. Boy was she surprised to feel our cold weather.
On January 10th, we took our AIMS Web reading tests. The students did awesome with this, they all made gains! YEAH! I will be sharing this information with you at the upcoming conferences.
On Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we learned about Martin. We read a story that his sister wrote about him. Ask your child about what they learned.
On January 19th we had an all school assembly. This was a lot of fun. Each grade level shared a poster of what they have been learning. We also practiced our PAWS and CLAWS and sang a song with the whole school. We also toured the school to see all of the learning that is going on here at Hawthorne. Wow! what cool stuff everyone is doing. If you come to school you should check out some of the work that is hanging in the hallways.
Tomorrow we have Reader's Theatre. The story that will be presented to us is Jack and the Beanstalk. Also look for the conference letters that I will be sending home tomorrow. Please send them back as soon as you sign them and mark them on your calendar.
