Here is Theme 4 week 5- focus on biographies for reading. We are wrapping up our "How To" paragraphs and are moving into using a story map to make a story  Here is Theme 4 week 4 for Reading. We are continuing organizing a paragraph as the focus for writing. Next week students will write a "How To" Paragraph.  

Here is Theme 4 week 3 for Reading. Organizing a paragraph is the focus for writing for several weeks. So you will see files titled that way. Any questions please ask. 

Here is Theme 4 Week 2 for Reading. One idea we did was to have students write paragraphs using a graphic organizer about a type of ant. Students worked with a partner to do this. We modeled the graphic organizer of main idea and supporting details with a leafcutter ant. And then gave students choices with carpenter ants, weaver ants, farmer ants, and Army Ants. Hope this helps. Theme 4 week 3 will be up tomorrow. Please add anything that you will be doing. :0) This is a checklist team leaders created to help you keep track of your students writing performance throughout the quarter. There is a slot for three separate times to check their progress. We said we could use prompts, or assess their daily writing.
