Dear Arleta Community,

Our staff is constantly learning and growing. In our professional learning time we are working towards building a coherent program across classrooms and across grade levels. This month we have a schoolwide focus on conventions. We are teaching lessons on grammar, spelling and punctuation. This is because we analyzed student writing samples and noticed that where students struggle with these skills it makes it harder for them to communicate their fabulous ideas. We want students to be able to showcase their thinking and we recognize that fluency with conventional writing will support that. We will be displaying students writing at our Arts and Literacy Night. Come and celebrate your young writers with us: our All School community Arts and Literacy Night will include dinner just like last year and it takes place on Thursday evening, April 11.

Today, 3rd grade teachers hosted a wonderful celebration for students to share their essays with family or caregivers as a culmination of their literacy module about the “Opinion” writing genre and the topic of Outer Space. Students have grown so much in their abilities to state an opinion clearly and group relevant information together. It was delightful to get to hear some of their fantastic writing today and also hear them talking about what they feel proud of (a few examples: writing more than they did for their last essay, adding a conclusion, elaborating on their idea!)

As part of their studies, 3rd graders have also been reading and learning about other historic icons such as Mae Jemison, Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Katherine Johnson. Some of this learning even shone through some student essays. And, it will be part of the 3rd grade’s contribution to our All School Black History Month Assembly coming up next week.

Have a wonderful weekend!
