Homework

We're going to hold off on spelling this week because I need to revise the list and make new copies for the students.

This week's homework will have two parts.

Part 1: Due Wednesday
We are learning about nonfiction texts beginning this week. We talked about the famous quote: "A picture is worth 1,000 words." Your child is going to write a response about what they think this quote means. We will be discussing our responses on Wednesday.

Part 2: Due Monday
Your child will go outdoors and observe the weather. They will write down their observations on one half of the sheet of paper and make an illustration of the outdoor scene they observed. We will share these out next Monday when we begin our weather unit.

As we are learning about the part that photography plays in nonfiction, I am sending out an all-call. If you have collected amazing images from magazine covers or photographs you have taken yourself, we would love to have them in class so we can discuss in our class. Thanks!
