Dear
Parents,
As
you may already know your child has been researching and using various sources
to gather information regarding a famous Americans. Students are learning how
to paraphrase and put together facts in a logical sequence. The students will then create an
informational text from the research they have collected, and will also create
a speech for their Wax Museum presentation.
Outside
of school, the students have an important
assignment. Each child needs to begin
searching for a costume. The students
need to dress like the famous person that they are researching. The costumes will be worn in school on a Tuesday,
January 14th. Parents are
invited to visit our classroom from 2:00-3:00 pm to see the Wax Museum “in
action” and learn about some of our famous Americans!
This
is a great way for students to share their research and celebrate the end of
our informational writing unit. I hope
you will be able to join us. If you need
help with your child’s costume, please let your child’s teacher know as soon as
possible.
Sincerely,
Pam
Foster
