Third Grade Reading

Reading

Students spend time reading each day during Reader's Workshop. Our units of study focus on the genres of books as well as learning strategies to help our 3rd grade students become better readers. Our students are familiar with the language from The Daily Five and use CAFE to set goals that will improve their reading.
