We have been working on our classification skills and using Tree Maps to identify main ideas and supporting details. Students are beginning to learn how to write paragraphs from this map using a topic sentence, details to support the topic, and a concluding sentence of why the information is important to know. We have mapped out an article called “Political Parties” and wrote a paragraph reflecting the information in the article.
Since the school closings, I will be posting work for the students to do on line next week. Students already know how to logon to IXL, ReadSeed, and ReadWorks using ILearn and Google Classroom.
