Good Afternoon Room 12,

Today you are going to listen to Mr. Overway read Chapter 21 of the Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan.  This chapter has Percy no longer a delinquent in the eyes of America – he is now the kidnapped child who was forced to trek across America by some biker dude, along with two other kidnapped kids.  Reporters feel so sorry for them that they collect money for their plane tickets home.  Listen to the link below to find out more.

Chapter 21, I Settle My Tab.

Enjoy!

The Lightning Thief Movie

Dear Fourth Grade Families,

Our most recent unit in reading is understanding fantasies.  The lessons we are currently discussing have followed our read-aloud, The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan.  We are celebrating the end of this read-aloud by viewing The Lightning Thief movie.  This movie, however, is rated PG and in accordance with our school policies I would need to get permission from the parents to allow their child to participate.  Below is a link to the movie’s site:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0814255/

 A permission slip will be coming home today for you to decide if you would like your child to view the movie.  If you or your child is uncomfortable in watching the film other arrangements have been made.
Thank you,
