Welcome back! Three days off has left us rejuvenated and ready to learn! Right? Right???
We started class out with DEAR time and then reviewed sight words. After that we moved right back into reading from Touching Spirit Bear. We finished chapter one and completed the question sheet. Before beginning chapter two we went over some book long projects that we will be working on. We discussed theme and reviewed the themes of some common books and movies. Touching Spirit Bear has many themes and some are unfamiliar topics. Student pairs chose a theme and they will research the topic and present to the class. This will provide them with a deeper understanding of the meaning of the book.
We will continue reading the book in lit circles tomorrow and will begin discussing figures of speech.
