Story: Flat Stanley
Target skills: Fluency and Comprehension
We will be reading the novel Flat Stanley together as a class. Students will read independently, partner read, and read aloud in class to build up their reading fluency and comprehension. Students are encouraged to complete all assignments in class so that the book never goes home. (Unless a student is absent).

Endangered Animal Research Project
Beginning on April 13th, Students will begin an endangered animal research project. They will receive an endangered animal to learn about and discover the reasons why it is endangered. They will also research what is being done, or can be done, to save this animal. This is a great way to tie in Earth week and our past lessons on habitats being thrown out of balance with pollution and other factors.
