In this continuous class, we will read The Empty Envelope together which is a part of the awesome book series "A to Z Mysteries." During our reading time, we will focus on vocabulary, reading comprehension skills such as the difference between fact and opinion, summarizing, main idea and details, sequencing, character traits. Reading comprehension will be a major focus of this class by me asking questions to ensure the students are engaged, focused, and retaining what we are reading. We will also practice fluency with students taking turns reading. At the end of each chapter, we will discuss main ideas and points to focus on summarizing. 

Session 1: (Comp Skill Focus: Character Traits) 
Session 2: (Comp Skill Focus: Facts/Opinions) 
Session 3: (Comp Skill Focus: Comparing/Contrasting) 
Session 4: (Comps Skill Focus: Summarizing)
             
The last class (time permitting) session we will focus on writing a summary of the story including main points and details supporting the main points.

Your student will need a copy of A to Z Mysteries: The Empty Envelope and a notebook to keep a few notes in during each class. If you do not see a day or time that works with your schedule, please reach out and I will do my best to accommodate your families needs.
