This blog was created to help you stay involved with what we are doing in class. You will be able to see what we learning about at school, and find additional resources to continue the learning at home. I invite your comments and suggestions!

The blog posts on this page will provide you with a weekly schedule for homework, projects, and assignments. On the left side of the page you will find links to blogs for each unit. On those sites you will get more specific information about current and upcoming projects.

If you have any questions about using this blog, or if you would like your student to bring home a hard copy at the end of every week, just send me a quick email at naylorm@seattleu.edu and let me know what I can do to help.

Narratives and Reading Assignments

A reminder that the final copy of the narrative writing is due THIS FRIDAY!! We will have some computer lab time on Wednesday and Thursday, but students who still have a lot of work left NEED to be working on this at home as well!!

Your final copy must include:
  • 5-10 pages typed, size 14, double-spaced
  • Title Page
  • About the author page
  • Dedication page (a name or names, or a simple written dedication...look in books you have at home if you need an better idea)
  • Comments page ( just a blank page that says "comments" at the top)

Also a reminder that Book Clubs will meet on Friday. Students must have read the required reading as noted on their reading schedule and have filled out a yellow Book Aid form BEFORE coming to class!! On Monday, about half the class did not come prepared, so please check with your child Thursday night to see that they have this work done.
I will also collect the Reflection Journals on Friday. Every other week I will be looking for 3 responses, but since I did not collect the journal last week after the 1st entry, there should be 4 entries this Friday. I will collect them before going to PE so students should not count on recess as a time to finish them. They are to be done at home.
We have spent a LOT of time in class reviewing expectations for the Book Clubs and Reflection Journals, so there should not be any excuse for incomplete work.
