Grade 2, Friday June 5
Reading Books in a Series and Writing Reviews
Morning Message
Dear Sweet Students,
Did you know that today is National Donut Day? This holiday started back in 1938 to honor the women who helped feed soldiers during World War I, because one of their favorite treats were donuts. Some donut shops even offer free donuts on this day. What is your favorite type of donut? Let’s be creative today and think about a new kind of donut we could create. What would your dream donut be made of? Draw a picture of it and share your idea with someone at home. Click Here for a link for a homemade donut recipe that an adult can help you with. You might even be able to make your own creation!
English-Language Arts (ELA)
We are writing reviews this week! If you missed the ELA directions on Monday, click on the button below to watch them. They are important and you should check them out at least once this week!
To begin, it's time to read for 30 minutes. You can read books on Myon (through classlink), at GetEpic.com, or with books you have at your house. I hope you found a great chapter book series to try!
Next, it's time for writing workshop for 20 minutes, maybe on the google doc planning page you chose yesterday or maybe on your own paper. This week we are working on writing a review, but you can also write whatever you want!
If you are typing your work, remember to use the same doc or slideshow you started on Monday. You should go to classlink or google to find it. If you have not started your reading journal slideshow yet, click on the button below to get the template.
Then, it's time to practice your reading fluency. Remember to read smoothly and with expression.
Fluency Lesson
Time to celebrate! Read the poem out loud to an audience! You could read to a family member, a pet, on a voice recording, or even over the phone (be sure to get permission from a trusted adult first!).
IT'S BRAIN BREAK TIME!!!
