Reading Response

Dear families,
We'll be starting something new as part of the nightly reading.  I am expecting students to write a response 1 time a week on the computer.
* One night they will read and write their response on my web page for  to read.
* The response question may differ week to week depending on what we are learning about in reading workshop.  Please read the response before reading as students may need to respond before reading (ex. making a prediction).
* On the night they read and respond online, they will type their answers.  This may be very slow at first and you may help them in the beginning, but I assure you...as time goes on they get very quick!
* You may choose which night to complete the response (at least 1 night but students can do as many as they'd like).
* As part of the Common Core standards, students are expected to respond more in writing and with guidance and support from adults, use a variety of digital tools to produce and publish writing.
* This will be something that I will check each week.  I love seeing what they come up with!
* We will start this the week of October 8th.
Start at my website...
