What We Are Working On This Week

Now that we are back into the school grove, I will be posting what skill we are focusing on each week.  It serves as a great study guide.  You can also look on the Language, Reading, and Writing pages for more information.

In ELA....
This week we are working on reflexive pronouns.  That is a pronoun (like he or she) with self added to it.  Students need to be able to pair the reflexive pronoun with the noun it is being linked to.

For example:

Joey ate the whole cake by himself.

In reading...
We are working on finding the evidence in the story.  When you ask your student a question about what they are reading have them find the place in the story that proves their answer.

Questions to ask about what they are reading:
What is the setting of the story?
Who are the main characters?
What is the problem in the story?
What was the solution?
