Our fiction reading this week from Scholastic SCOPE magazine…”How to Make S’mores”….Started with our prereading activities identifying the setting (including where other students on our team have lived) & worked collaboratively on reading closely and thinking critically!

Research shows that group work helps students develop skills valued by employers--problem solving, negotiation, conflict resolution, leadership, critical thinking, etc! Ss worked together to find the central idea of @Scholastic Scope article, "Lost in the Woods". 🦮🌲@SFMSLions

Students on 6Green had the opportunity to chat with Jennifer Dignan, writer and editor, and Christen Braithewaite, digital editor, of Scholastic Scope Magazine. The students had great questions and had the chance to give feedback to them, too!

Last week, our scholars read an article on s’mores in our Scholastic Scope magazines and today they earned pieces of their s’mores by successfully completing each station. #LitEducators #Q1Review #CoStars

This is always my favorite writing piece of the year. Students read Jennifer Dignan's beautiful poem "What My Name Means," then create their own name poem. It's such a wonderful way to get to know the children. I love seeing and talking about their poems.
