3rd grade: Medieval tales have been a blast! The students have been reading and discussing the following stories: Robin Hood, Beowulf, The Green Knight, The Island of the Lost Children, and The Werewolf. Some students have been crafting their own stories at home!
4th grade: It's Maniac Magee time! Fourth grade has been reading and analyzing this text for a week now. The students are making some amazing connections and thinking deeply about the themes of the story. They have packets with critical thinking questions and vocabulary to explore.

My students picked a poem of their liking and wrote a different version of it. They turned out great!
