Journeys


This week we are introducing new concepts in Journeys while learning about different types of weather and storms. Very engaging!!

Our new text this week are:
Super Storms
Genre: Informational Text
This text provides facts about a familiar topic: different kinds of storms.
Photos (graphic features) with captions will provide additional details about storms and ways to measure their effects. Students will also be identifying the main idea and details in a selection and discussing the cause and effect of storms.

Weather Poems
Genre: Poetry
Three poems about weather will allow students to compare perspectives, imagery, and the use of repetition. They will learn about how the sound of words can show images and feelings in poetry. They will also discuss repetition as a device used in poetry.
