10/13

Today we took about 30 minutes to read in independent reading books while I conferenced with students about their long writes. My goal is to provide feedback for long writes before I assign more and hold kids accountable for something they are quite clear on.  Also, research says large chunks of time reading books that are "just right" help improve student's reading levels!  HW tonight is to make sure you have completed 3 long writes to date (2 about IR books and 1 about Night john ch 4) and to rea dand log.  Also do not forget permission slips!
