Our literacy focus this month is determine importance. Students are reading a variety of texts to determine the theme of their literature selections. Once they uncover the theme, the students must support their thinking with text evidence. We have read Best Friends, Mathew and Tilly, Enemy Pie, "Buddies", Toot and Puddle, "My Friend", Frog and Toad, and George and Martha. All have a common theme: friendship.
We have had lively and thoughtful discussions on the meaning of friendship and what it takes to be a good friend. The students have shown themselves to be strong readers and thoughtful young men and ladies.
