Mrs. Scarlott's Reading Class

Hello! This year I will be teaching Reading. In our first unit the anchor text that we are reading is Night of the Spadefoot Toads by Bill Harley. This text engages students with characters that are in the same grade. This realistic fiction book builds knowledge and understanding of analyzing characters and their traits to help better understand a text. Students will learn to compare and contrast the thoughts, feelings and actions of characters within a text and they will understand how a character's actions are influenced by events.
