Peek at My Week 9-8-15

     This week we will work on identifying the main idea and important details when we read. Then we will use that information to write a summary. We will also work on fiction vs. nonfiction and sort characteristics of the two genres.

     In writing, we are still working on procedures for our mini lessons. This week, students will write about an activity they like to do with their family or something they did with their family this weekend.

     We will learn about and identify the subject of sentences during our grammar mini lessons this week. We are still introducing and using activities from my School is Cool! Literacy Stations resources.

     This month's character focus is courage. We will work on defining it this week and discussing our courage quote for the week. This resource was just added to my store. The link is included below.

     You can download the pdf here.
