Woo-hoo, our first nine weeks is at an end, and we have had some outstanding reading going on in the classrooms and in intervention. We learned about narratives (texts that tell a story that's make believe). Some of these included fables, fairy tales, tall tales, folk tales, realistic fiction stories, mysteries, and historical fictions. Now we are into our practical and informational reading cycle where we are learning about brochures, newspapers, magazines, atlases, maps, and reading instructions as well as lots of other kinds of practical texts.
In after school, we are making recipe books, and next week we will be making popcorn balls for everyone involved in afterschool tutoring. Talk about FUN practical reading skills! I can hardly wait.
We are looking forward to seeing all of our parents and guardians at parent/teacher conference so that we can show off the neat things we have been doing. We hope everyone will come!
Have a great day!
Mrs. Smith and students
