ELA - Day 1 of our Realistic Fiction Reader's Workshop. Students copied their Teaching Point with the
Elements of Realistic Fiction into their Journals. I then read about 10 pages
to the students, explaining some of the more hard to understand points to them.
I encouraged the students to write down new characters as they arose and to
start a "working" map of the Finches' street so they have a visual of the area
Scout is describing. They then continued to read on their own tonight's reading
goes to page 27. I am open at lunch for reading time and discussion on points
students don't understand. IF we happen to have a snow day tomorrow, students are still
responsible for their reading (and will have more time to do it :) the reading
for Friday-Sunday is pages 28-78. Homework: TKM reading to page 27 - Journal entry
#7. Have a great day!
