Since we had a holiday this week and Wednesdays are enrichment/intervention days, we did not read a Reading Street story. All reading classes have read passages about the history of 9/11. Today the students worked on summarizing(a review skill) those passages. Also students are completing a Remembrance Quilt Square to construct a fourth grade quilt. Stop by and see our quilt in the main hall of SES during the month of September.
