Authors' Celebration
October 20th 
8:30-9:30
Please come celebrate our publications of the "Big Thing that Happened."
 The students learned how to use strong emotions, action, dialogue, similes and show, not tell. I am proud of the published works. 


Non- Fiction Text

With the new Common Core State Standards, we will focus on how to read nonfiction text in RTI.  We'll learn about text features, subject specific vocabulary, cause and effect and how to compare and contrast information as we learn about plant and animal adaptations. Our Foss Science text, The Mighty Saguaro CactusA Real Cold Fish, Cave Dwellers, and Animals of the Tropical Rainforest will be our texts as we learn these skills. Additionally, we will learn how to cite evidence and generate questions about informational text.








GOOGLE CLASSROOM


We have entered the world of Google Classroom. It is exciting to see their eyes open to new learning experiences. We look forward to the future.
