10/26 to 10/28

Hello,

Thank you for all of your patience and help for our first all virtual experience. I would love your feedback about how it went for your family. If you have a few minutes and wouldn't mind taking this quick questionnaire: https://forms.gle/Z3s3sGKMm9Xq91ws7. I would appreciate it!

Upcoming Events:

  • October 26: Sweat Pants Day
  • October 27: Wear Flannel/Plaid Day
  • October 28: Wear costume or wear orange day

[Wearing costumes is something that is fairly new to NDLC! Please keep costumes school appropriate. It will also be important that the student’s face is not entirely covered.]

  • NO School Thursday or Friday October 29th and 30th

Reading

We are starting to work on stopping to notice and jot down our thinking in reading. Students are adding post-it notes to their books so they can share their thoughts with peers, teachers, and families.  

Something you can encourage at home is when your student is reading, having them stop and retell what is happening  throughout the book. Students love the feeling of being able to read and start to speed read.  It’s important that they are checking in on their understanding. 

Writing

We are wrapping up our Poetry Unit.  The students will have a small celebration on Wednesday with fun Glow Sticks and Halloween Glasses.   They will bring their anthologies home then.  Please take time to celebrate their hard work when they bring them home.
