Hello Group 42! I hope you had a nice Thanksgiving weekend with your family. This week we are going to work on Reading Activities – we will be Reading Detectives and presenting our favorite book in a “Book Tasting” to the class.
I will also be adding the
Classwork to my blog from now on, that way the students at home can keep up
with their work.

sent on Google Classroom to go with the lessons I teach. They will only be
posted on the day I am teaching that lesson.
