Hello Map Makers,

I enjoyed seeing you working on your NYS maps yesterday.  I look forward to you adding the major cities of our state next time.  Do you know what the major cities of New York are?

Violet will share today.  Mrs. Landahl will be coming in, so we do not have time for free shares today.  (Hey, look! I made a compound sentence!)

Please update your reading status.  Next, you should work on DCCR 2-5.  Many of you started this yesterday, but all of you need to either finish or correct it.

Kindly,
Mrs. Harvey

Dear Workers,

Hello there!  I hope you are doing well today.  Please order your lunch and update your reading status.  I am curious to see the quantity of reading you did.  If you are efficient with that, you can have some time to tidy your desk and then write in your writer's notebook.  That should quench your desire to write!

We will have an extraordinary visitor later today.  It will be a fun way to end our day.  We will have to work quickly during writing to accommodate the change in schedule.  I know you can do it!

_Collin
Mackenzie
Stefano______, _________, and _____ will share.

Happy October,

It is a fun time of year with pumpkins, apples and costume planning.  I look forward to enjoying this time of year with you.  Eli will do the announcements.  Mrs. Landahl will be in today so we will not have share time. 

Please read your new poem and put it in your poetry folder clips.  Next, please think about last week's Mentor Sentence.  Can you please fill in the last box with a sentence of your own that imitates Kate DiCamillo's sentence...remember this sentence gets to be completely made up by you, but it should follow the pattern of "Rob floated through the rest of the morning."

Kindly,
Mrs. Harvey
