What a wonderful week we have had here at RMCS. This week, our entire school went to support the UVM Women's Basketball team. We had a blast cheering for our local team, got to dance to some Zumba at half time, enjoyed a snack from Mr. Coon and then got to give players high fives at the end of the game! Here's a peek into our fun:
This week in reading, we've switched our focus from fluency to paying attention to authors' word choices. We learned that sometimes authors use words in playful or inventive ways- we call this "literary language". Sometimes authors compare two things to help us gain a better understanding of an event or character. Sometimes authors use expressions to make us think or feel a certain way. We are always on the lookout for literary language!
Our class will be going to the Flynn Theatre Friday, March 8th to see Rosie Revere, Engineer. We are excited for this STEM-Arts connection.
Mrs. Mahl shared some exciting news with the class today. In July, Mrs. Mahl's family will be growing by one! This means I will be here through the end of the year, but will just be sporting a growing belly. Yay!
This week is also our last week of the Winter PE schedule. When we come back from break, we will return to having PE on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Other Things to Ask Your Child About:
- Climb the Beanstalk
- Using "for example" in our writing to provide evidence for texts
- Our final cross country skiing
- Twice as Tall
Have a wonderful break!
