What are we learning this week?

We will not be reading a story out of the reading book this week.  There will also be no sight word test or spelling test because of the shortened week.  We will be doing an author study Kevin Henkes.   Some of his books include Lily's Purple Plastic Purse, Chester's Way, Shelia Rae the Brave, and Wemberly Worried.
