In Writer's Workshop we are continuing to work on "how-to" books. The students are really enjoying these. We are now writing longer books and even chapter books. This week we will learn how to write introductions and conclusions for our books.
The first week of round 3 sight word tests went well. Thanks for practicing at home.
In Guided Reading we continue to work on many reading strategies. Ask your student how to use the following strategies when you are reading at home....
- Stretchy the Snake
- Eagle Eye
- Lips the Fish
- Chunky Monkey
