Language Arts: Students will continue their study of Story Elements with a focus on Personal Narratives. A Personal Narrative is a true story about your life; something that has happened to you. Story Elements are the characters, setting, problem, solution, plot (beginning, middle and end), and theme of a story.
Think of the 5W’s and H: who, what, when, where, why, and how.
Please view the following links to help support IXL learning. Listen to the stories provided and answer the following questions.

Raz-Kids:. We will continue to use Raz Kids as our assigned reading. Students who are reading at levels A-J will continue to read and complete at least 2 quizzes per day. Students reading at levels K-Z will only be required to complete one quiz per day. Need to read 30 minutes daily. Keep reading until 30 minutes are up or split it, 15 minutes then another 15 minutes
Your child should listen, read AND do the quiz for each book. They need to be working on level up, not in the reading room. Also, if your child is having trouble on the quiz with a specific skill for example, the author’s purpose: they can use IXL to strengthen their skill then complete the quiz. If your child does not complete all tasks, they can’t go to the next level.
