Reading and Writing -  New Material beginning week 5/25/2020

# data[].attributes.body
I have added new material for reading comprehension, some phonics and a new writing  prompt.  Please scroll down through the Padlet to see the material.  The reading comprehension stories are in PDF format. There are also two activities to review main idea and supporting details. Reminder - You do not have to print. The PDFs can be read from the computer. Questions can be answered on paper. All PDFs include an answer page, so answers can be checked when work is finished.  Reminder- When answering comprehension questions, remember to reread the text to find clues or information to help answer questions. Do not guess! Stories are at different reading levels.
There are  a couple of new videos for reviewing phonic skills.

This is for students working at this level. (This activity would require parent support.)
1. Students will select or add a word or words to sentence stems to make complete sentences.
2. Students can practice their writing by copying completed sentences, if able to.
3. Students with limited writing abilities can choose words to glue on paper. (Parents would need create word choices for them to do this.)
4. Alternative:  If a student is able they can also type sentences on computer.
