We Are Learning...
Reading
We are diving deeper into our Realistic Fiction texts! We will continue our discussion of the plot of a story. Students will distinguish the sequence of major events in a story.
Writing
We are busy writing our Realistic Fiction pieces! Many students are publishing their work and writing series of books about the same realistic character! We look forward to sharing some of our writing at our upcoming conferences!
Math
Next week our class will be working on strategies for perimeter. Then we will be moving into subtraction!
