It has been a long time since I reported on our Reading classes so here is what we have been up to...
Chassatie & Damien ~ We just finished a small unit on Tall Tales. We read Mike Fink, Johnny Appleseed and Paul Bunyon. We talked about fantasy versus reality and Chas and Damien had a great time reading all three stories and looking through the picture books.
Devon, Walter & Lonnie ~ I think we have mastered Guided Reading Level L and we are MOVING UP! We will start reading Level M books when we return from vacation!
4th Grade: Pheobe, Abby, Kira, Sarah, Taylor, Calie, Brianna, Nicholas, Sydney, Shannen, Matt, Hunter, Bradley, Natalie & Connor ~ We have been working on ELA skills tirelessly for the past few weeks and we only have one week left until the big test. We are all very excited to get this test over with and get back to truly reading. We will start a unit relating to Science after the ELA test!
Anthony & Bella ~ We just finished reading Sunny Holiday and after vacation we will start a unit on The Great Depression and we will read the book Bud, Not Buddy.
Hailey, Camryn & Kaitlyn ~ I have been pushing into Mrs. Peterson's classroom a great deal this past month helping to prepare the third graders for their ELA. We have been working on listening skills, note taking and editing.
Lance, Ivey, Jacob and Michael ~ We have been working on ELA skills for the past few weeks, but after vacation we are reading a fairly new book by Andrew Clements titled Lost and Found.
I hope that you all have a fantastic vacation and come back well rested because we are almost at the home stretch for the ELA test and I hope that you all do extremely well on it!
