Reading Update
Third Grade
Third grade students started their research for On the Day You Were Born. They are using student links on the website to find information via the internet. There is no extra homework if they have finished their questions and used the interview questions for interviewing their parents or grandparents for some information.
Fourth Grade
Fourth graders are to finish reading My Daniel by Pam Conrad. There is a 5 sentence paragraph that is text-to-self, text, or world connection that they will need to write for Wednesday.
Fifth Grade
Fifth graders are reading Shackleton's Stowaway by Victoria MCKernan. They are to read to page 99. If they choose to read farther because there is no class next week, they will need to write a paragraph about every 60 pages. There will be a total of 5 text-to-self, text, or world connection paragraphs for the book. Students missed half of class because of the book fair and the rescheduling of PE.
