Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!  As we start the new year, we are diving right in to working hard with our reading!  This week, we are reviewing our non-fiction reading skills and strategies from before break with a study of sea turtles.  Students will read four different texts and will integrate their learning across texts on the same topic.  Students will apply their learning of text features, text structure, and author's craft to these different texts.  Today, we started with Gail Gibbons book Sea Turtles.  Students will read and take notes on the unique features of these non-fiction texts.  Another favorite book of mine that we will read is One Tiny Turtle by Nicola Davies.  Next week, we return to fiction reading with a Mystery genre study!
