It was nice to see everyone back after the day off. We continued to use the 9 core reading competencies to help direct our look at literary texts. Today, the fifth grade read Salt In His Shoes, and had a nice discussion concerning the change undergone by the main character and the deeper meaning of the story. This work will continue into tomorrow.
During our ELA block of time, members of 312 also continued to be hard at work on their "Important Me" poems. Students are using this to give others a snapshot into their likes and interests. The finished products will be displayed in the fifth grade hallway.
