Grade 3 Update

In Grade 3 we have been reading Charlotte's Web. We read one chapter a day, and then work on retell, main idea and comprehension questions related to the story. Last week I introduced how to write a persuasive letter (something they are working on with Mrs. James).  While I was testing the students reading, each student wrote a letter to Mr. Zuckerman explaining to him why he should let Wilbur live.

Here are a few pictures from today's partner reading.

Peter didn't want his picture taken but I guess A.J. was okay with it :)

Here are some close up pictures of the folders I made for partner reading. It has all of the retell questions, paragraph shrinking and prediction relay information.

I also have information for the readers about how to make corrections along with step by step information on procedures (incase I am away).
