What are we learning?
Reading: We will be starting our nonfiction unit. We will begin looking at organization of nonfiction texts and identifying main ideas.
Your child will be reading nonfiction books in class. Therefore, they will now be able to bring home their library book that is on their level for reading nightly.
Did you know that your child can access links to Quizlet on eClass? Here your child can practice their word study words to prepare for assessments.
