Aloha Warriors,

Today is a short day. We end school at 1:30. Our specials are Hawaiian and Science.

Reflecting about last nights “new” homework assignment, `ohana Blog, give me 1-2 sentences as to your thoughts about what you had to do. Here are some questions to get you thinking. Did you like having the opportunity to write a draft of a blog post? What did you write about?

The goal is to revise and make them blog ready and post it today.

Lets have an awesome Wednesday!!!

Aloha kakahiaka e nā keiki,

As you are aware this is a short week of school with Thanksgiving on Thursday. Our convocation went well yesterday as we blessed all the Operation Christmas Child presents. Yesterday, we started our spelling words in a new fashion. You were given the task and responsibility to choose your own words. How did you like or not like that? In writing we also continued our How-to pieces. In one sentence please reply and let the class know what your story is about. In another sentence write your thoughts on choosing your own spelling words. There should be TOTAL OF at least two sentences in your reply. Mai poina (Donʻt forget) sentences start with a capital and end with a period.

I lā maika`i,

Kumu Kaleo
