Busy Bees!

Over the last few weeks we have been very busy bees in our literacy blocks! Here is an overview of what we have been buzzing about doing:

Word Study: we just wrapped up a unit on idioms, we have been working with plurals (es, ies and s endings) and of course our regular POTW work

Writing: we are wrapping up our procedural writing unit by creating a class cookbook, we have begun a mini unit on writing quotations and will begin comparative writing

Reading: we just finished up with the reading strategy of "asking questions", we continue to read passages and respond to questions that require us to support our thinking with evidence from the text

Sometimes I can't believe how efficient we are and the amount of learning that takes place in a day... our "Fun Fridays" are definitely much deserved!
