Today we continued our Biography genre study! After an extended vacation, thanks to some snow, and a little CMT practice last week, we are back into Reader's Workshop mode. As a class, we are reading Helen's Big World, The Life of Helen Keller by Doreen Rappaport. While we read, we are paying close attention to special features of the biography genre and discussing how the time period effects the struggles and achievements in the person's life. We will also discuss why Helen Keller has a biography written about her. Tomorrow the class will each submit a blog entry about the Biography we are each partner reading from the Time for Kids series. Check them out on our Kidblog!
