Literacy  📚
This week in Literacy we will be reading the text, Frogs by Gail Gibbons. Through reading this piece we will continue to address the unit questions, “How do things change? How do they stay the same?” We will discuss the weekly question, “How do animals change as they grow?” This week we will also review the genre of Expository Nonfiction, practice reading and spelling words with diphthongs ow and ou, apply the comprehension skill of compare and contrast and learn more about word structure and graphic organizers. If your child would like to practice our weekly spelling words using the Spelling City website, click 👉here!
