Weekly Skills to Practice<br />
This week we will be doing a lot of reviewing what we have covered over the first 9 weeks<br />
of school for are upcoming benchmark assessments. Our major strategy will be pulled from<br />
the Notice and Note area on Contrasts and Contradictions. Having students stop while they<br />
are reading and ask themselves “Why is the character doing this?”<br />
Comprehension Skill/Strategy: Text and Graphic Features /Infer & Predict<br />
Writing Focus: Students will continue to write narrative stories to identify the purpose of<br />
entertaining their reader. They will <strong>focus</strong> on meeting the main components of: who, what,<br />
when, where, why and how of a given topic or about and event or experience.<br />
Grammar Focus: Students will be comparing words using the ER and EST endings.<br />
Phonics: Teacher will work on phonics skills based upon the need to the students during<br />
small groups. Each individual student will work on needs based on DSA data.
