READING
NEWS:
This week
we will be continuing Unit 2 of Reader’s Workshop, Navigating Non-fiction. We
will start the week by choosing Just Right Texts and reading with stamina. We
will do this by learning that the strategies we used while reading fiction text
can be used in non-fiction text as well. We will also become experts and teach
others from non fiction text by learning that we can teach using voice,
gestures, and illustrations. Lastly, we will grasp main ideas from text by
using boxes and bullets to organize information into larger categories.
WRITING

While
writing our personal narratives we will continue our discovery drafts and focus
on replacing words with more descriptive words. As always, we will do our 20
minute quick write on a number of different topics to wake up our brain!
