In class we have read the book The Secret Shortcut. The students identified the plot as "Excuses Never Fly". The author has created an open ended ending. The students will work on creating their own secret shortcut in a different setting. I am excited to see their imagination fly.

Wolves Note Taking
In class we are learning about how to take notes. We have focused on one central topic, wolves. The students have enjoyed learning about these magestic animals. To build additional knowledge we watched part of a National Geographic film about a man living with wolves. We DID NOT watch the entire video. I told them they may watch the rest at home.
