Home LetterDear Family,Throughout the week, students will think about how to answer the question “What do facts and opinions contribute to a story?” Our main selection, The Dog Newspaper, is an autobiography of children’s author Peg Kehret. She fondly remembers her first effort as a ten-year-old author—a handwritten newspaper about neighborhood dogs. She wrote out twelve copies and sold them all! Students will then read Poetry About Poetry to see the fun poets have with…poetry!
Go to the eBook to read and listen to this week’s selection.

Dear Diary
Sunday, October 5
What a weekend! I had a wonderful time yesterday at the park. I watched three soccer games in a row. It was really exciting when the Yellow Jackets won the whole tournament!
I think the entire fifth grade was there, cheering the team on. Even Principal Shaffer came. Now, though, I have homework to do and my chores to finish before supper. Today, my mother asked that I fold the clean laundry and take out the trash before I do anything else. I’d better get moving.
Wednesday, October 8
Today, Ms. Tilden asked my class to write reports. We have four weeks to finish our reports. We have to work in teams of three. Our grade is based on the report, so each team member gets the same grade.

I am happy with my team because it was easy to choose roles. Yari loves to do research. She will find the books we need. I am a fast reader, so I will go through what she brings us. I will make notes about our topic. Seth loves to write. He puts information together in an interesting way. We will all help proofread. We will check for things such as grammar and spelling. It might just be fun!
Saturday, October 18
My desk is piled with books. I hope I can find all the background information we need about marine life in the Pacific Ocean. We will need a lot of facts for our report. It looks like I will be too busy to write in my diary for the next couple of weeks.
Wednesday, November 5
I am actually looking forward to an uneventful weekend. I am glad there is nothing going on because I need to rest! Who knew writing a report with two other people would be such a challenge? Still, we had a great time working together. Seth is so funny! When we got worried about getting done on time, he would come out with a silly poem or riddle1 to make Yari and me laugh. We think we will get a good grade. We KNOW we were relieved to turn it in today. Writing that report was like running a marathon!
Sunday, November 9
I almost got my wish for a restful weekend, but I am glad I did not. Mom surprised me with a treat. She said I have been working hard for a long time. She was so proud of me that she wanted to reward me for being such a good student. Guess what we did? We drove two hours to my grandparents’ house for a visit!
I love going to the country. Grandma had freshly baked pumpkin bread waiting when we pulled up. Grandpa told me I was getting smarter every day. He says that every time he sees me. Still, it makes me feel good. When we left, they promised to come to our house soon. I cannot wait!
Thursday, November 20
I am on cloud nine! We made a 93 on our report! Ms. Tilden said that our teamwork was among the best in the class and that the report was well written and showed a lot of research. I am glad that ordeal2 is over and we will be getting back to our regular class schedule.

Tuesday, December 2
Seth and Yari have become two of my best friends. We learned a lot about whales, dolphins, and fish, as well as each other! We decided to make plans to get together over the winter break. I am curious to see if we can decide what to do as easily as we divided up the jobs for the report. At any rate, I know we will laugh and have a ton of fun.
Friday, December 12
This weekend Mom and I will begin what she calls deep cleaning to prepare the whole household for my grandparents’ visit. I think I will paint a landscape and hang it in the guest room. Grandpa and I always go bowling when they come. He is an amazing bowler; I think I have only beaten him three times. It is fun spending time with him, and Mom and Grandma love to cook together without us underfoot in the kitchen.

The Dog NewspaperOral Language Chant
ELL Lesson 18blackline master ell18 .2
Grade 5, Unit 4
Spread the News!Read the chant with a partner. Then talk about exciting true stories in the news.
Every publication has a rule:
Make your stories exciting! Make them cool!
An uneventful story isn’t interesting.
One reporter wrote an article
about a man who loved his chair.
The reporter’s boss was angry.
He said, “We just don’t care!
That story is boring! It makes me tired!
A more exciting story is required!
Learn this formula for your career:
Give us insights! Tell us what you hear!
In the next edition, make me laugh, or make me cry.
Just make sure that you don’t lie.”
