This morning students had a special guest come and talk to us. Dr. Peter Bowers is a etymologist, and came to teach students about spelling. Students were very excited to be word scientists and deconstruct words to their bases, prefixes, suffixes and meanings! Ask your student what words they can make out of the base struct!
This morning students also continued their exploration of reader's theatre. Last week students were given their scripts, then they highlighted their role and searched for words they did not yet understand. Today students worked with their groups on their expression and timing while reading the scripts aloud. I can't wait to see these performed!
If you have any skating forms left at home please send them in on Monday. Thank you!
Have a wonderful weekend, enjoy the sunshine!
