Drugs Stink -Wear Pink

Tomorrow is "Drugs Stink-Wear Pink" day (wear as much pink as you can-remember NO hair color) in conjunction with "pack the place" in pink day at Skyview. Speaking of Skyview, we have some students coming tomorrow to do skits with 4th graders on how drugs affect them.
Today, we watched our Little House on the Prairie Movie about how Albert got addicted to morphine. It really showed how it affected him and his family. If your child can tell you how it affected him at school and what it did to his family, write movie in the planner for free money.
Tonight for nightly writing, they don't have to reflect and write about the movie as we had a great whole class discussion after the movie was over.
Tonight's nightly writing is to write a poem about leaves or their animal that they made with their leaves. They can write a cinquain, acrostic, rhyming, etc. I told them to even go on-line and find some examples to piggy-back from. The main thing I stressed was 4th grade quality and creativity. Also, parents can you please edit them so that we can write the final copies tomorrow and then I can get them hung up in the hallway. Thank you.
Thank you for getting those conference confirmation slips back.
Remember HE/PE tomorrow.
Have a great night.
