This week in reading students will be applying what we have learned so far in reading to grade level text. They will choose 1 of four stories from the literature book to summarize, and apply their knowledge of the following: author’s purpose, point of view, elements of plot, and internal/external conflict. On Friday they will take a short comprehension quiz on the story they selected.
In writing students will work on an idea for the PTSA reflection contest. The theme this year is ” The world will be a better place”. Students who wish to enter the contest may. Details are in the Bryant newsletter.
In vocabulary students will continue to be on the look out for new and/or interesting words to define or clarify from their good fit book. They should be able to find 5 each week. The vocabulary books are in. We should begin the program sometime this week. Those that ordered one will have one to write in and take back and forth. Those that didn’t will have one to use in class and will write on loose-leaf.
