Students will enjoy a featured text excerpt both read aloud by the teacher and read by students (when comfortable). Text will be shared via Google Slides, and students may read aloud from the screen, or simply listen and follow along. Throughout the reading, students will be engaged in a series of thought provoking questions, which build their reading comprehension skills. After the selected text is read, students will practice the skills introduced in the text through fun and engaging activities which can be used with many books after class concludes. **Please Note: There will be no graphic, violent, sexual, or politically questionable excerpts included for in class lessons. 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.** Week of June 10: Genre Focus: Fiction ⭐︎Comprehension Strategy: Making Connections ⭐︎Vocabulary: Two New Vocabulary Words Encompassing this week's reading ________________________________________________________________________ Week of June 17: Genre Focus: Fiction ⭐︎Comprehension Strategy: Retelling ⭐︎Vocabulary: Two New Vocabulary Words Encompassing this week's reading ________________________________________________________________________ Week of June 24 Genre Focus: Nonfiction ⭐︎Comprehension Strategy: Asking and Answering Questions ⭐︎Vocabulary: Two New Vocabulary Words Encompassing this week's reading ________________________________________________________________________ Week of July 1 Genre: Nonfiction ⭐︎Comprehension Strategy: Identify Main Idea and Details ⭐︎Vocabulary: Two New Vocabulary Words Encompassing this week's reading
