~Our day started out with a bang! We met Mrs. Goodman, our new teacher. She taught fifth grade at her former school, and was Teacher of the Year there! She is full of awesome ideas and is excited to be in Fifth Grade! She even came with her won SMART BOARD! I can't wait until she shows me how to use it!
~We started out new Word Study today, and learned a lot about peddlers and smugglers.
~We also began our next writing assignment, which is a response to the book, The Children We Remember. It is a picture testimonial to the 1.5 million children under the age of 12 who died in the Holocaust.
~We also learned how to differentiate between author's purpose and author's viewpoint.
