Dear Anran's parents,

Anran is an excellent reader. She is very fluent when she reads and her pronunciation of vocabulary she is very clear and accurate. Well done, Anran.

I would encourage that Anran uses her English-Chinese translator whenever she does not understand words that she is reading.

I would also encourage Anran to complete her homework. The homework assignments are based on each lesson's curriculum knowledge and homework completion will help Anran learn the English language better and more quickly.

Anran has not completed her homework for two weeks now and her English language learning progress is developing slowly.

Completing her homework will significantly help Anran.

Thank you.

For today's lesson, we reviewed Anran's anchor charts and we also covered Lesson 17 - Task 1 - U2L2 - In Class - Where Are They Going.  

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: translations, definitions, and synonyms

3) Reading strategies: text features, fluency, and comprehension

4) Genre: Realistic Fiction

5) Reading Genres

6) Text Features: index and glossary
