What's Going on in Reading?

We're quickly wrapping up our drama unit by reading a play version of The Christmas Carol. The students enjoyed being able to perform the play in a reader's theater-style and several really took to their parts. At the conclusion of the play, we compared the traditional version of our reading to some of the more nontraditional versions of the tale.  When we return in January, we will begin our study of poetry!

Over break, please encourage your student to take some time each day to read silently from their AR book. The first project on third quarter is due at the end of January, but many students have made it a personal goal to have the project complete when they return from break.
