Rainy Tuesday

Wait..I thought it was APRIL showers bring MAY flowers... 

Why is it raining TODAY???  

Oh well, keep calm and carry on as they say!

• 1st/2nd - Literacy Block
• We started with breakfast.  Afterwards, we moved into reading Chapter 8 of our class novel - Stuart Little.   We did a group guided read of chapter 8, stopping to ask key detail and main idea questions along the way.  Afterward, students worked to answer 6 questions on the smartboard from today's reading.  
• We then moved into ReadyGen Lesson 3A.17.  Our focus was to look at the task for the PBA and then to reread "Knots on a Counting Rope" and "Storm in the Night" to look for reasons and details that would support the opinion prompt for the PBA.  We used a tool called "Inspiration" on the computer to create an outline that the students will be able to use when they start writing.  This type of reading together, discussing together, finding details together... it leads to better understanding of the task, the texts, and next steps.

• Ms. Avalos passed out the Chapter 11 test.  Students worked on the Chapter 11 test and then worked on a review sheet until time was complete.
