Friday Journals

We wrote our first Friday Journal entry today!
Please ask your child to share their letter with you and have a quick discussion about their letter. For example, you can use the 'Two stars and a wish" strategy - one thing they did a great job with in their letter and something they want to or need to focus on for next time. Parents, feel free to write a short note back to your child.

Please return the letter journal/notebook on Monday.

Here is an example of a letter format that students will have access to to support them in their letter writing:
