5th Grade ELA Weekly Update
January 3, 2024
What are we learning?
Reading: This week we will return to our unit 3 learning in both reading and writing. In reading we have mastered plot elements and are moving on to analyzing characters and labeling them with character traits, as well as learning about the protagonist, antagonist, as well as major or minor characters in the story. We will also be taking the Winter Reading NWEA test next week: Monday and Tuesday, December 8 and 9th.
Writing: This week we will also get back to writing our fantasy stories. We are still in the beginning stages- planning and writing rough drafts. We are continuing to look at mentor texts to gather ideas and implement them in our own writing.
