IF YOU HAVEN’T completed these articles in ReadWorks, Do them 😉

Please take a few seconds and fill out this form….It asks three questions.

Here is the LINK

What is our Global Community? 

Each year in the Q1 library, we like to encourage students to share their family’s heritage during our Global Literacy week.  In year’s past we’ve done a Diversity Quilt, which showed family traditions & flags representing the family’s origins.  We’ve also done a “Peace” wall to show the different languages in which our diverse population of students would say the word Peace.  This year I would like to display on a map where our students come from.  Show them a visual of our “Global Community” here at Quest.  By doing this we would like to know what State or Country your student was born, or if your student would prefer, where their family originates from.  We will then put their name on a “sticky” arrow & place them on the map.  I think this will be a fun way to show how diverse our student population is here in West haven, Utah. 

For responding, your students name will also be entered into a drawing to win a small prize here in the library.  There will be one winner per class.

It really is fun to see where we all originate from & have the students start thinking a little more Globally.  Also possibly finding a kinship with students from the same areas of the world. 

Thank you for participating!

ReadWorks articles *Can only miss 2 questions* READ AND REREAD BEFORE ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS

#1 Catch the Breeze

#2 School of Skate

In the past, I have had student’s give book reports on books they are reading at home for homework. This quarter our class has been learning about Utah History-we are going to be giving book reports on this subject. All of the reading is being done in the classroom and the report will be done in the classroom too. We will be using technology to present them (iMovie). Please continue having your child read at home for 20 minutes. This is a wonderful learning/developing tool (out loud is always better). They also need to summarize their weekly reading in the homework link found here.

Welcome back!
