Week of October 8Dear Parents,
I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend! I am hoping we will get to enjoy some fall weather here shortly! TOPICS: Reading: This week we will begin point of view. Most students may remember learning about this topic last year. We will be digging in deep and discussing the points of view in our book clubs and comparing and contrasting first and third person point of view. Writing: We will be working on responding to a constructive response question. We will practice how to use the TEACH strategy (notes are on Google classroom and our website) to answer these questions. In grammar we will be reviewing how to use quotation marks for dialogue and quoting evidence from the text. We will also review dictionary & thesaurus skills this week, making sure to practice how to use digital tools to help practice these skills. Reminders:
