I am so proud of the way this class has returned from break ready to learn.

Today in writing we started practicing character development.  We are developing interesting characters that we might use later to write a fantasy story.  Developing our own characters for future stories will be very helpful to us later when we start our reading unit on fiction texts.  This winter in reading we will be learning about personality traits and physical characteristics, and using that information to help us make predictions and inferences to better understand a story.
