Fiction vs. Non-Fiction

We have been working to finish and type our Compare/Contrast paragraphs about a classmate, and we have been reading and comparing examples of Fiction/Non-Fiction Text. This week we read a fiction story about a vegetarian restaurant, and we read a non-fiction story about meat analogs. 

Next week's reading skill will focus on "Conflict" as we read "On the Banks of Plum Creek" from Laura Ingalls Wilder, author of the Little House on the Prairie series. 

Our spelling test this coming week will be on THURSDAY due to Friday's field trip. We will be on Unit 6.   Tests from Friday are returned on the following Monday.
