Funded Oct 19, 2017Thank you for being so eager to fund my project. My 5th graders were thrilled to open the boxes and see enough books for each of them. They have been even more thrilled to dive into these reading adventures with their classmates.
We have begun our novel study with The Lemonade War. Students have worked with one another to discover new vocabulary and grammar structure. We have read as a whole class as well as independently. Since every student has their own copy of the novel, I am able to pull a few students and monitor comprehension while others in the class continue at their own pace.
Students are able to recognize the correlation between the novel, math lessons, as well as real life situations. We are all excited to finish The Lemonade War, and then begin our next novel as a class, Glory Be.”
With gratitude,
Mrs. Weathers
