7th: We began class today by continuing to read Chapter 1 of the Breadwinner and finish our prediction foldable from yesterday. We made a list of all of the new words/concepts we have been learning relating to life in Afghanistan. Then, we did a character foldable about the characters we have read about thus far. Then, we read Chapter 2 and complete a foldable on a chosen character to chart the details about this character so far- what he/she looks like, what he/she says or thinks, what he/she does and what others say about him/her.
Homework: Do your book buddy letter response. Make sure your book commercial is ready if you're going tomorrow. Read for 30 minutes and record it.
6th: Today we began class by setting up our new comp books we'll be using in the new year. Students did some amazing book commercials and I look forward to those presenting tomorrow! Then, we introduced the book we'll be reading aloud, Before We Were Free, by Julia Alvarez. We did some previewing of the book and then read the first part of chapter one, together.
Homework: Book buddy letters due tomorrow. Read for 30 minutes and record it.
