Wednesday: Riverside Pride

In Readers' Workshop, we read a few excerpts from The One and Only Ivan, paying close attention to what characters do (their actions) to infer ideas about their character traits.

In Writers' Workshop, we looked a Patricia Polacco's Chicken Sunday.  We noticed how she used linking words to write long and strong sentences.  Students then applied this strategy to their personal narratives.

In Math Workshop, students used round to help estimate sums and differences.  At my station, students are solving real world, multi-step problems that involve data. 

In Word Study, students learned a new word to describe characters, melancholic.  Ask your child what this word means, have them identify someone from books, TV, movies etc..
