Student will practice visualizing and making mental images. Students will be introduced to figurative language. Students will be prompted to ask questions bout what they are reading.

A PDF will be shared in the classroom on Sunday before class. If you are new to the class, or do not see the PDF, please reach out to me so I can send it to you privately! Boom Cards will be used the week of Mouse and the Motorcycle, and an additional device may be helpful in participating in this activity.

We will be using carefully chosen, age-appropriate excerpts to strengthen comprehension skills, and introduce many fantastic pieces of writing to help students begin to foster a love of reading. Please review these texts in full before allowing your child full access to these texts if they choose to read more outside of class**
