Reading Workshop: Last week we began our work reading non-fiction, or informational, texts. Each day we practice a new skill while reading informational books. Mr. Gifford even stopped in last week to see what we were working on! He was very impressed with our partnership work and how we applied our new skills.
Writing Workshop: Last week we also began working on persuasive essays. We have began by looking at the different characteristics of persuasive essays and wrote our very first FLASH DRAFTS! Wow! We are extremely talented writers!
