ELA
Right now we are reading a great book "The One and Only Ivan" as a read aloud. We have been loving every page and they are never happy when our ten minutes are up. I am sure they would love to fill you about what has happened so far.
In our next unit, we will focus on stories that teach. (Fables, Folktales, Myths, and Legends from diverse cultures) We will read a wide variety of traditional literary selections which convey life lessons or explanations about the natural world. We eventually create our own stories that teach others!
Remember to try and read with your student when possible, it's awesome quality time and it's great practice. Ask questions and have discussions with them about what they are reading. :)
