We will not be reading a story from the Anthology this week.  We will continue with our book clubs.  They are:

Across Five Aprils

The Report Card

We will be focusing on the literary elements in these two stories.  Each student will make a literary element map for their story.  Each map will include characters, character traits, setting, situation, problem, conflict, and resolution.  When our stories are complete, each group will create a large literary element poster using their maps as a guide.

 

We will also be writing a Reading Response Letter (RRL) for our read aloud story, Where the Red Fern Grows.  The RRL needs to include a summary, a reaction to the story, and a connection to the story.  Do not forget to back up your thoughts with evidence from the story.  Use your example letter, guide, and rubric to help you.

****READ! READ! READ!****
Remember to read each night for 30 minutes and record it on your reading log!!
