This week in Reader’s Workshop we examined plot structure and worked on identifying different elements of plot.

We started the week by diagramming together, using our mentor text The Can Man. Later, students worked in partnerships to examine plot further. Please see student posts for more detail and information. 

Today, in honor of Dr.Seuss’s Birthday, we watched The Sneetches and did plot diagramming together. 

Next week we will continue our study of fiction by examining different themes commonly found in fictional text.
