Reading

In class we are reading a variety of texts, some chosen by the teacher and some chosen by students.

- independent reading

- reading assessment passages

- historical information

There are lots of opportunities for students to read a variety of texts outside of the classroom as well. Please encourage your child to read everyday. 

- menu

- billboard

- newspaper

- game instructions

- advertisements

- brochures

- cartoons

- novels

- and many more

We are focusing on understanding the texts we read using the strategies of identifying the main idea and supporting details, visualizing, and summarizing.
