I introduced students to our next unit in LA today: Historical Fiction! Students will be put into book clubs and with their club they will be reading between 2-5 historical fiction books, preferably all about the same time period, and meeting with their group a few times a week. We will be reading our books each day in class- as a group they will be determining how many pages they need to read before each meeting- so students who are unable to finish the reading in class will need to read at home as well. We will not be doing another book talk this year- this in class reading unit will take the place of the final book talk. I provided students with a packet of titles and summaries and went over each book with them today- they then ranked their top 3 choices for me so that I could place students in groups.
Homework: K1-K7, Greek and Latin Roots
