WEEK 6: September 16 - September 20
This week we will learn about Comparing and Contrasting. We will look at books we have previously read, as well as books we have read independently to discuss how the compare, or how they differ. Students will continue to discuss characters and the messages of the author in their texts by looking at ways they are alike and different.

Writing Workshop:
We have been Pre-Writing using the graphic organizer, Boxes and Bullets. Students will continue through this Pre-Writing process, move on to choosing that one moment they have written in their brainstorming, and then begin the drafting process. We will also look at how we as authors, want those in our stories, to be portrayed; by focusing on their feelings we bring out through our own writing.
