Children will be busy completing meaningful literacy tasks:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read to self<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Work on writing<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Word Work<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Listen to reading<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read to Someone<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the students are engaged in their literacy choices, I will be teaching small groups and individuals, so everyone can get the just-in-time instruction they need to reach their potential. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CAFE is what we study during the Daily 5 time. CAFE is an acronym for the four major components of reading:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">C for Comprehension<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A for Accuracy<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">F for Fluency<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">E for Expanding Vocabulary<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your child will learn reading strategies within each category. These strategies will become tools that help them become better readers and writers. I will keep you informed through weekly newsletters of the new strategies that are introduced to the whole class. You&#8217;ll be updated about your child&#8217;s individual strategies through Parent Pipelines. Both of these communications will help you reinforce concepts when you read with your child at home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thank you for partnering with me. It is going to be a great year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sincerely,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Ms. Truxall<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Parents, &nbsp; Welcome to our classroom!
