Reading Groups

In our reading groups, we are working on a variety of things.  Because of our latest writing project, we are all looking at how authors use the five senses in their writing.  What other things make books interesting and worth reading?  I am studying vocabulary with all of the reading groups too.  All of the reading groups are also working on summarizing small pieces of text.  What information is important enough to include?  What information shouldn’t be included? 

Another important skill we are working on is INFERENCING.  What do you know based on information you’ve read?   What can you figure out based on clues given? 

I can’t wait to meet with your kids this week!
