Newsela Article in class: "Reading, Writing for Good Health" Dear Students, This page is where I will update everyone weekly about what we are doing in class, and what assignments are due. This is the best place to go FIRST if you are absent. Please check this page at the beginning of each week to get a better understanding of what we will be doing in class and to keep up on your assignments. Most everything we will be doing this year in class will be on Google Classroom and turned in digitally. This is to make it easier for you and also eliminates the excuse "you lost my work." It is a win win for ALL of us! We have a full set of Chromebooks in our classroom this year and we will use them A LOT! I am so excited to get to know all of you! Make a new friend today and make a goal to have the best year ever! Love, Ms. Nye Assignments Due this week:
