ELA
Unstoppable is the book title and that is just what it is!! The kids cannot put it down and beg us to continue reading when we have to stop! Ask your student what the book is about. While we are reading this, we are continuing to work on unknown words and phrases. We are also working on stations to consist of sharpening their reading, writing, and listening skills. Continue to encourage your student to read 30 minutes daily and to remember to bring earbuds to class each day! As students are in and out of class for illness or other reasons, please let us know if you ever have any questions regarding ELA work.
