Reading
- In Reader's Workshop this week students will practice self-monitoring their reading by doing a triple check. Students will be taught that after solving tricky words, readers always triple check. They ask, "Does that sound right?" "Does that look right?" and "Does that make sense?"
- Students will review all their strategies to solve words and make a plan to be the best readers they can be!
Writing
- In Writer's Workshop this week students will continue to write reviews and share their opinions on topics. They will give many reasons why that is their opinion.
- Students will study mentor authors and try to incorporate what they learn into their own writing.
Phonics
- In Phonics students will continue their study of vowel teams, building off their work of the previous week.
- This week we will focus on the vowel teams oa, ai, ay (boat, sail, play) and think about the sounds they make in words.
