Casi Assessment
This past week the students have been working on a reading comprehension assessment. The purpose of this assessment is to diagnose each student’s strengths and learning needs to provide appropriate programming for students and to chart their growth as readers. Students assessments will be going home to be signed by parents.
Buddy Day
We missed our class on Friday, but all for a good cause! We shared our knowledge about Courage with our Grade 1 Buddies! The grade 6s were great role models!!!
Elephant & Piggie
Reading with expression is an important skill to become a fluent reader, enjoy text, and improve comprehension. Mo Willems’ books are wonderful for students to use to practice prosody. The text is simple give students clues about the characters’ feelings. As a class, 2-3 students at a time, we practiced expression of our voice while reading. It was a lot of fun and the students really enjoyed it!
Gregor - Summaries of Chapter 1-7
We had put Gregor the Overlander on pause for a little while. To refresh our memories, we broke off into groups to create a summary of each chapter. Here are some photos of how hard they were working in class.
