Students will have Reading MEA's tomorrow! We have been practicing how to write reading responses, which should include restating the question and giving at least 3 pieces of evidence or support from the text. I have also been reminding them to reread to get the evidence they need.
Reading: Read for 1/2 hour; We started a new book in reading called, My Side of the Mountain! Sam Gribley, the protagonist, meets a weasel and a hawk who become his friends! He goes on fishing and hunting adventures so I am hoping students will enjoy the journey of reading with partners, small group and whole group discussions.
Writing: We will be sharing our nonfiction writings with a others classes this week and next week. I think students are excited about this! We will be going into Mrs. Hanf's room and Mrs. Clark's room.
We also started a new writing assignment which students are very excited about. They will be writing a fictional story and some are incorporating a fancy element. Some of our characters are a duck, pencil, sock, and much, much more!
I think students are enjoying using their creativity and hopefully when we are done they will illustrate them as well. Keep you posted!
Social Studies: There will be a social studies quiz on Friday over Chapter 10 ~ The Southwest.

I have given students their TCI username and passwords so they can access the book and challenge online. They can also take a book home if they prefer to.
