Next Week's Learning
Reading
- We will continue learning about Narrative Nonfiction next week. The students have learned that narrative nonfiction is a real story about a real person, it is often told as a story, it might have a beginning, middle and end and it may include photographs/text features.
- The students have been learning about identifying author's purpose and also asking questions while reading.
- On Monday, we will do a Hershey's Kiss taste test on Monday and doing a quick opinion writing about their favorite Kiss. Don't tell the kids, it is a surprise for Monday.
- We will start our next piece of writing next week. The students will be writing a personal narrative. This is similar to a nonfiction narrative. It is a story about their life.
- This personal narrative will be about a time they have helped someone. This weekend, you can help your student brainstorm some ideas of times they have helped people. This will help them plan their writing next week.

- We will start our next science unit next week. This unit is geographic features. They will be identifying where water is located on earth. They will be identifying where salt and fresh water is located, as well as where solid and liquid water is found. They will also learn how water flows.
- We took our Unit 6 Fundations test yesterday. Some students struggled with writing the long vowel patterns and then using them in words. We will continue to practice these.
- Our next unit is over open syllables which also create the long vowel sound.
Have a fabulous weekend!

DR WILLIAMS CURED 7 YEARS AUTISM
ReplyDeleteI am sharing this testimony for my daughter who suffered autism for 7 years. I am doing this, because I was her mother and caregiver during her dark days and am very happy to share it so that others can be helped through DR WILLIAMS HERBAL MEDICINE. It was a tough a battle for her; I was not actually the one who hard autism, but bearing the burden makes me understand what parents whose children and love with autism go through.
Lesia now 19 and was diagnosed with autism at the age of twelve, for seven years, she fought against her diagnosis. I must admit it was never easy for us as a family; we had to constantly watch her, and answer questions that we couldn’t explain. On several occasions, she asked if she will ever stop having speech delay and get well like her school mates and be the best swimmer she dreamt of becoming. She was a very happy child; and had a ‘normal’ childhood and there was no suggestion that she would later on develop autism.
She refused to accept defeat and fought autism. She religiously kept to her medications in spite of their side effects. We all wanted a cure, so that she can chase her dream and live a normal life like every other child. But the more she takes these medications, the more her school grade drop. She couldn’t concentrate and we noticed that her memory was being severely adversely affected. Each time we went back to the hospital, her medicines were changed to a different one. Seems like, each change of drug brings about change in side effects. After about 6 years on Abilify , Geodon , and other medicines, it seemed the autism started to increase in frequency. I had to make effort to reduce her medicines with plans to eventually stop it all. We found an alternative treatment in homeopathy, which was better than her English drugs. Gradually, I reduced her drugs, and her autism were no longer as frequent as it was as when she was on conventional drugs.
With our little breakthrough with homeopathy treatment, we made further search for natural cure. Fortunately we saw testimonies about herbal medicines which cure autism. We saw a lot of claims though, contacted them and didn’t get a useful reply. Lucky for us, we finally got a reply from Doctor Williams, he directed us to his blog where we saw a lot of information about his herbal medicine . Without further delay I made a purchase for her, I switched her over to it. We had great breakthrough, that in 3 weeks, her autism reduced. After 1 months as Doctor Williams promised , all autism symptoms stopped. It was like a miracle for us. since all this days now Lesia became autism free. Her story is quite lengthy, I hope it also help someone out there.for more information you can email Dr Williams on drwilliams098675@gmail.com
