The year finally feels like it's coming together. In the previous weeks the students have focused on asking and answering questions in their own words about key details in a text. This week we are working on summarizing the main topic and key details of a text in writing. The kids are super excited because we are using passages about zoo animals to summarize. Differentiation is the key to keeping the kids engaged and learning at their full potential. Reading and writing are incorporated together this week. We start shared reading by finding key details and charting them. The students then move on to summarizing the information in their own words during writing. We finish by looking at our sentences and editing them.
