Hello 5th grade families,<\/p>\n
For Quarter 2, I am planning more small group instruction for reading. This will allow me to meet the needs of your child on a more individualized basis. This really excites me! We will be starting reading clubs where a small group of students will all read the same book. Throughout the week they will meet, read, and dive into deep guided conversations. I will also meet with each group throughout the week to guide, assist, encourage, and participate. The goal\u00a0for this time is for students\u00a0to embrace the 4 C’s: Collaboration, Communication, Critical Thinking, & Creativity.<\/strong><\/p>\n However, in order for these reading club groups to be successful, we need books! I have created a wish list on Scholastic. On this wish list I have selected 7 books that are awesome 5th grade novels. For each book, I have requested 6 copies. That way each student in the reading group can have their own book to read. If you would like to donate any of these books to help make these reading groups happen, we would be so appreciative. The books are very inexpensive, they range from $2.00-$4.00.<\/p>\n If you would like to donate\/purchase the books for our classroom, you can\u00a0follow the following steps:<\/p>\n More information for Quarter 2 will come soon. \ud83d\ude42 Stay tuned!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello 5th grade families, For Quarter 2, I am planning more small group instruction for reading.
