New Destinations New Lenox



Today we re-read "Welcome to Chinatown and took the story test.  Here's the link to the ebook.  This story is the last story in Theme 5.  We are also working on creating our own "New Destination" reports about special places in New Lenox.  We are creating posters and writing a plan for our oral presentations.  The students are enjoying this activity.  

In Block 1 we finished reading Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes.  The class really enjoyed this true story.  It is quite a tearjerker.  

Block 2 is finishing Hank Zipper and the Zippity Zinger.
