Happy Valentines Day everyone! Here

are some examples of the Valentines Cinquain
poems that we wrote.

This week in Language

Arts we created antique journals to go along with a novel
we are reading, Blood on the River. This novel is set in 1607,
Jamestown, the first English colony in the New World.
We are going to be writing in these journals from the point
of view of a boy named Samuel, the main character in the
story. We are also going to be learning about foreshadowing when writing in our journals, warnings the author gives
us about events to come.
In Social Studies we are moving into colonization in the
New World which goes along with the novel we are

reading.
