Essential Learning

Reading:

• I can identify the purpose of my reading
• we cannot say, "...because the teacher told me!"

Today, you have the choice of what you are reading for at least 10 minutes.  

Why did you pick that book (post, blog etc.)?

In your journal, answer this question (2 minute quick write)

Writing: 

• I can see how the volume of my reading impacts my knowledge of the wide variety of styles of writing.
• We will brainstorm the types of reading materials
• We will record our findings as a class and post
• We will make connections between writing form and purpose.

Here is our Class Collection of Writing Forms

Friday we will make connections between the writing forms and purpose.
