Spelling City

4th graders have four activities to complete at Spellingcity.com. Each student was given a username and password.

In reading workshop, we learned about written responses to explain our thinking and deepen our understanding of the text. Our responses today centered around a read aloud. Ask your child about the book titled Baseball Saved Us. Who was the guard?

Tomorrow we will develop a checklist/rubric for reading responses.

In writing, classmates helped each other with story ideas by asking questions of what was omitted or needs to be added to the writing. Many found this process beneficial.

Remember no school on Friday!

Happy Trails,
Mr. Rabinowitz
