Good Morning Emerson Eagles! Dream, Believe, Achieve!
Today is Monday, February 7, 2011
Upcoming Events:
During Saturday School over 40 students made up an absence, planted potatoes, and earned enough points in First in Math to move us up district-wide!
The computer lab in the library will now be open!!! Ms. Betty will be there to help students and classes take AR quizzes, access math homework at your level on SuccessNet, and also earn stickers in First in Math.
The day after tomorrow, Wednesday, there will be a special assembly, during which we will make a big announcement. The only clue that I can give at this point is that it has something to do with a special TICKET!
Today is the first day of our SKILL BLITZ! During the next 10 weeks until CST testing, we will focus one one READING COMPREHENSION skill every week. This week our skill is Story Structure. If you see the story structure poster in your classroom, please point to it. The three elements of Story Structure are: plot, setting and characters. Think of a game (like the Superbowl), a book or a movie that you have watched and try to identify the plot (what happens), the characters (who is in the story), and the setting (the surroundings where it occurs). Today use story structure to help improve your understanding of what you are reading.

Engagement Requirements:
What's more important, SPELLING WORDS or VOCABULARY WORDS? Everyone, please discuss this question with a partner.
Spelling IS important, especially if you are learning word roots, origins and spelling patterns, but VOCABULARY will help you use the language of the discipline- science, history, mathematics, or language arts to discuss important topics accurately and in a mature and sophisticated way. Pay more attention to vocabulary than spelling AND make sure that you use your vocabulary words as often as possible.
Lunch and Attendance:
For lunch, you have two choices, the Farm Fresh Salad Bar, or the hot lunch. Today the hot lunch is:
