* We are continuing our practice for the ELA. This week we are working on note taking skills that pair with the listening section for the test. I am modeling many activities for the students to get them used to the layout. I will slowly start to back off and let them do more on their own. Wish us luck!

* We just started reading the book Lily and Miss Liberty. It is a book set back in time when the Statue of Liberty came to America. It is about how the families who lived in NYC raised money to build the pedestal which the statue is placed on.
