Week of 10/13
ELA Homework & Updates:
We've been continuing to practice the reading strategy of "Lifting A Line" to help us think about what we're reading.  We also read the nonfiction book The Mary Celeste, The Unsolved Mystery by Jane Yolen.  We talked about the importance of asking thoughtful questions while we read.
