I cannot believe we are at the end of September already! In Language Arts today the students spent time learning about their reading expectations. All students are expected to read at home for 60 minutes each week. How they choose to break up their reading is up to them. They are expected to read two books per marking period. The works out to roughly one book every four and a half weeks. Then, they need to create a one-pager. This is a response to their reading. The requirements for the one-pager have been posted to this blog post and sent home with students today.
The students also spent time exploring NewsELA which is a website we will use to analyze informational texts at our reading level. We will begin doing this next week.
Lastly, the students spent time in class practicing read to self.
Have a great weekend!
