We concluded our ELA time with reading Gathering Blue. Students used evidence from the book to analyze the conflicting words of one of the supporting characters.
Literary Cafe Update from Robin Pilfer, 2014 Literary Cafe' Chair & Susie Spear Purcell, Coach & Opening Celebration Director
Literary Café is less than two weeks away! We are working hard to make this a truly special evening for our children with the theme of a "Parisian Literary Café" on stage and at the reception. We want each child to have his or her moment to shine and then to celebrate afterward, but we need your help!
In order to serve our families, the Café needs 2-3 parents from each class to donate a dessert (homemade or store-bought), as well a few people to assist in the Café each night. Classrooms are no longer allowed to serve food, so we will all celebrate and enjoy our desserts in the Café. Please sign up here to help:
Secret Question Instructions: I provide the blog as a way to communicate what's going on in class. Unfortunately, some parents and students are neglecting to check it. To encourage people to keep up with what's going on, every once in awhile I'll include a secret question. Students should find the answer and tell me discretely the very next day in the morning. Students who are able to do this will get a small treat.
Secret Question

(Hint: the answer is in the homework reading.)
