OUR WEEK AT A GLANCE

Reader's Workshop: Students will begin working on reading skills such as finding the main idea of a text, putting story events in order, comparing and contrasting and answering questions with text evidence. They will also take a beginning of the year screening assessment on IXL to help us understand their current levels.
Writer's Workshop: This week, students will be writing a personal narrative about their summer break! Students are working on neat printing and coloring, correct spelling and conventions.
Studies Weekly: Students will continue with week 2 of our social studies curriculum. They will think like a historian and learn about primary and secondary sources.
