Kindergarten: We continue to work with fiction and nonfiction books. We are very good at knowing the difference! We played a Mimio game and each student had a chance to move a book into fiction or nonfiction columns. There were a variety of read alouds this time.
First Grade: No read aloud as we are continuing to learn about text features. We used some of the new nonfiction books that POWWER purchased for us to locate different features!
Second Grade: No read aloud for us either as we explored the library online catalog. We learned how to search by keyword, title, and author!
Third Grade: We used a class set of the nonfiction book Penguins to search for text features. We also played a game where we guessed the text feature based on our classroom definitions.
Fourth Grade: We're starting a mini research unit! We chose a magazine we were interested in and looked at the different text features. One class was able to look for a book on the topic as well!
Fifth Grade: Our research projects have been started. They're starting to come together in their final forms. So many great projects coming forward!
Sixth Grade: We started Dewey Decimal commercials. Each student is in a group for a given hundreds section of the library. I can't wait to see the final results!
Have a fabulous Spring Break!
