Younger students are going to be working hard at sight words, rhyming words and reading strategies. Our reading this week will be fictional stories and answering the WH questions.
The 4th and 5th grade students are working on comprehension strategies. We have continued looking at answering multiple choice questions but with the focus of story elements and what type of questions we should expect. This can guide our reading. We are also filling out story elements graphic organizers and writing summaries of stories.
