May 4th-8th

May the 4th be with you!

A lot is happening in Room 12!
Reading/Writing-We have ended RTI and our class is reading a fun and engaging book: "Tall Tales". It is about famous people from America's past including: Johnny Appleseed, Pecos Bill, Paul Bunyon, Davey Crockett and more. This book uses hyperbole in excess! We will be doing Literature Circles together this week so each student will have a job assignment each night.
In addition, we will be writing our own "Tall Tales" as a fun, culminating activity.

Spelling Vocabulary-Courtroom Vocabulary/Constitution from History

Math-We are continuing our Review from the year in preparation for testing, which starts next week.

History-We are learning about the US Constitution!

Geography-Our class is learning the 50 states and Capitals along with where they are on the map.

Courtroom Learning-Bob Wall, a local lawyer, will be teaching our class about the Cookie Court  trial and what it's like to be a lawyer this Thursday.

Friday-Field Trip to Watsonville Courthouse-We are leaving at 11am so drivers need to be here no later than 10:50 to get directions and info about the trip.
IF YOU ARE NOT A DRIVER, but want to come, you are welcome to come along and see the Mock Trial. It's fun!
