Reading
- In Reader's Workshop this week, we will continue working on our Stone Soup booklet.
- Last week we covered the characters, problem, and solution in our booklet. This week we will be focusing on retelling the beginning, middle, and end of the story. All of these comprehension skills are so important for ALL books students read.
Writing
- In Writer's Workshop, we will work through the editing and publishing process of our small moment books that we have been writing.
- Students will revise and edit. Then we will work on writing a dedication and authors blurb for our published books. And finally we will make a cover!
- We will publish and share our hard work at the end of the week!
Word Study
- This week, we will be learning and working with the -oa word family (ex: coat). We will continue discussing the "vowel pair" rule: "When two vowels go walking, the first one does the talking."
- You will see a GREEN WORD STUDY BOOKLET in the back of your child's binder. Just a reminder that this booklet stays in their binder. It should never stay at home. ALSO, your child should NOT work ahead on this booklet at home. We will work through it together at school, and then they can use it as a study tool at home. Please make sure they DO NOT work ahead in it at home. Thank you for your help with this!
