Raz-kids.com

Today, students started using the Reading A-Z website: raz-kids.com. This website allows students to login and read books on their level. Students may also take quizzes and listen to books. Every time they do one of these activities, they can earn star points for their Rocket Room. Be looking for a parent letter to come home soon. Students are able to login at home and there is also an app available to download if you have a tablet or smart phone.

Describing Characters and Making Connections


Our students participated in a fun "carousel graffiti" activity today. Students walked around and wrote their answers down and then we had a whole group discussion about their responses. Students also practiced supporting their answers with evidence from the text. They did a fabulous job!!
