Dear Summer's parents,

It was very nice to see Summer this evening. Although he had difficulty focusing on the lesson today (naturally due to his Summer holiday and Summer camp, lol), we were able to cover most of the lesson plan for today. 

For today's lesson, we reviewed Summer's homework and his Anchor Chart binder. We also covered some of Lesson 22 - Task 1 - U2L5 - In Class - Part of the Whole.  

We covered the following literacy concepts and strategies:

1) Pre-reading strategies: prediction, identification, text-to-self and text-to-world connections

2) Key / New vocabulary: definitions and synonyms

3) Reading strategies: pace, fluency, decoding, context clues, text features, and comprehension

4) Genre: Narrative Nonfiction

5) Graphic Organizer: Animal/Plant/Human Connections
