Journey's Work

Within our last lesson of Unit 1 we have two new texts.
Teacher's Pet
Genre: Realistic Fiction
We are reading as well as practicing to identify the problem and solution in this realistic fiction text. The story demonstrates the elements of a story's structure through both the words and the text, using a familiar topic. Students will be able to identify the elements of a story's structure and understand how the author's word choice creates meaning in a story.
Next time you read a story with your child, ask them to identify the characters (who), setting (where and when) and plot (what happened).

See Westburg by Bus!
Genre: Informational Text
Children will regularly encounter informational text in textbooks and on the internet. This informational text gives children experience with reading a map and applying the information to real life scenarios. Students will be able to follow information in a pamphlet and apply information found on a map.
