Leader in Me: Last week in Leader in Me we talked about setting Achievable and Measurable Goals. We are really good at goal setting. We often say, I am going to read more or I will do more chores. Yet, without an achievable and measurable goal, it’s hard to follow through. So instead we can set a goal that sounds like: I will read for 20 minutes right when I get home from school. Or, after I am finished reading I will do one chore from my chore chart. When we are specific and have a vision for what that goal will look like, we are more likely to meet it.
Help your student set some achievable and measurable goals at home that will build success for them and your family!
SeeSaw: Your student created a SeeSaw for Parent Teacher Conferences. I think I fixed issues we had at the start of the year. Please take a few minutes to watch them. Let me know if you are having any troubles getting onto SeeSaw.

Reading/Writing:
This week we will be wrapping up our Nonfiction Unit in both reading and writing. In reading we have spent the last part of the unit reading text sets (3-4 books on the same topic) to grow our knowledge. In writing we are spending the last part of the unit thinking about how we can write about the same topic in different ways: narrative nonfiction, how-to’s, all about books, or question and answer books!
Note from Mrs. Duda:
Mrs. Duda was at a conference last week and received some great new information that she asked us to share with families. Take a look, talk to your student about it, and set goals/boundaries around screen time.
