I reviewed the book report format today and told everyone that we would work on the rough draft letter in class next Monday and Tuesday. I asked that they begin to take notes for their letters so they will be ready to go then. The final draft of the letter is due the following Friday (11/6).

Hello,
I sent home the guidelines for our next book report today. I will go over the format of the report in more detail tomorrow. The completed report is due on Friday, Nov. 6.
We will continue to work on the museum project this week. The written pieces look great! I've assigned the second piece - diagram, map, chart, timeline, etc. - to be completed by this Thursday. The entire project (including the art portion) is due Wed., Nov. 3.
Thanks for turning in the permission slips for our NASA trip. Thanks too to all parents who offered to drive. Specific information will be coming to you soon!

Thanks and have a good week.

We have been working on our early colony museum projects in class. Each student is responsible for three pieces - a written piece, an art piece and a map, chart or diagram. I've asked that the final draft of the written piece be turned in this Friday.
Your child has a checklist with requirements for each.

Hi Room 14 students!
Remember to be ready to recite your poem tomorrow. No other homework - yeah!

Mrs. Koue

P.S. Thanks so much to all my parents who were so flexible about changing their conference times. See you all soon.

Hello,
We will be starting our early colonies museum project this week. The kids will work in small groups and each will be responsible for contributing three items to their group. The completed "exhibits" are due Oct. 29. I'll keep you updated with dates for completing individual pieces of the project.
I'm also asking everyone to be ready to recite a poem this Thursday. I would like to make this a monthly activity and plan to have a special "poetry cafe" project in December. More news regarding this later...
It was a pleasure talking today with my Monday conference families and I look forward to meeting with the rest of you as the week progresses.

Best regards,
Mrs. Koue

The Junior High play was wonderful - really one of the best I've seen. I think it's great that we have the opportunity to support the school's drama program. Also, it's fun to see former Rio students on stage! Thanks again to all my parent drivers.
The cells were all terrific, and the kids had fun showing them off. We had a cell sampling fest after lunch - yum!!

I sent home your child's conference schedule today. I look forward to meeting with you all next week.
I also passed out the October Scholastic book order today. I set up an account that allows parents to order books from home which should make this process a little easier. You will need to go to the Scholastic home page and sign on to their parent order link. The user name for our class is: rio14. The password is: scholastic. Our class receives free books when you order this way. Thanks!
