Reading Goals:
This week students will continue working on summarizing fiction text. We will read a non-fiction book and start working on creating a summary. First, I will model how to do it, while asking students to help. Then, we will do it together (I will help and guide students). Finally, students will work on doing their own summaries of non-fiction text.
Language Goals:
This week students will learn about adjectives (words that describe nouns). We will be looking at adjectives that tell what kind and how many. They will learn to identify adjectives in sentences. To reinforce this skill at home, look at Language book pages: 398-401
Writing:
Students are very excited about writing their own fables. As we do, we are going over the 6 Writing traits. This week they will proofread and publish the fables they have been working on.
Thank you,
