We have concluded our first novel, Danny Champion of the World. Students were assessed on their written responses to the novel, and our focus was on providing evidence to support their opinions. We are now beginning a unit on nonfiction reading skills and strategies through the use of a resource called Brain Bank by Scholastic. This includes small leveled readers, and we are beginning with science topics. Students will provide written responses designed to build skills in comprehension, vocabulary development, and writing within a variety of texts.
