Today’s reading workshop lasted an hour, that’s right, an hour! I have never seen a group of kids so engaged. We have been working a lot on understanding how readers infer. Using background knowledge, asking questions, and documenting clues from the text, students had an in-depth discussion on an inference they made based on all three of these elements. P
lease ask your child about this tonight. I am sure that they will have a lot to say!
WOW! Great work third graders. You guys are awesome.
We use these skills often, as a reader and in life. I am proud of this group for how you are choosing to develop as a reader and thinker.
