Language Arts Notes:

We will continue to study the theme of exploring impact and effect through reading texts on volcanoes and tsunamis.  For writing, students will be working on their PBA; to write a news report on a natural disaster event of their choice. 

Remember to have your child read 20 minutes per night as well as go on IXL to practice language arts skills at home.
