Use Punctuation to Enhance Phrasing!

(please review and practice during home reading)

In the News!

I have been discussing the news and current events with our students! They are encouraged to read an article of their choosing from the following websites, (and perhaps with your support) to print and bring it into class to share every Friday (current events day)!

Here is a great article related to our Arctic inquiry to read with your child. In addition to finding interesting articles, this is a great way to get in some home reading! It is also a targeted way of practicing our CAFE strategies :))

This week since we are focusing on fluency, (smoothness and expression) we are reading news articles by acting like we are News Reporters! How would you want to hear the news?
