Grade 4- Literature Circles and Writing

4A students are working on comprehension activities and fluency with oral reading. The title of the story they read today was "What is it?"-- relating to the scientific process and continuing a lesson from last week.  It would be helpful for these students to read (in English) nightly, so that they are able to practice picking out details and better recognize grade-level words.

4C students used their critical thinking skills to try to identify words out of context.  They made educated guesses and discussed their answers (these words will be defined before reading the next short story).  4C students also used vocabulary that was provided (taken from the unread story) to create a story-- what they thought the real story was about.  They focused on including story elements and the vocabulary given.
