Reading WorkshopThis week we began our reading challenge! Students have all picked out books that are just right and are setting weekly goals. Students are reading for 20 minutes in class and are expected to read for 30 minutes every evening. Becoming a strong reader takes lots of practice! As readers, we are also THINKERS! Each time we read, we think about what we have read and record it in writing in our reading notebooks.
