This Week 2/6!

This week we finished with Organizational Structure - the last structure was Categorizing. I'm excited as now we moved into Informational Text Features Unit. This is a very important unit - more than half of the questions from the CRCT will be based on Text Features and Graphic Features. We started defining the text features using a special book in which provides examples of each feature. We then started on our first Informational textbook "Searching for Lost Tombs" this book has a chapter on the Chinese Terracotta Army which we have a field trip quickly approaching! With this prior knowledge walking in the door, it will help enhance the educational experience of our field trip and the students should be able to ask thought provoking questions to the guides and answer some of their questions as well!
