ELA homework

Hello!
Each student received a new non-fiction article today about growth mindset. Remember, reading, especially non-fiction text is a big focus at the school as a whole, and especially in 6th grade. Please use this time to work with your child on understanding what they are reading.

Their homework for tonight is to read the article and then use context clues to help them figure out the meaning of the unknown words listed on the back of the first page. Here is a sneak peek for the week of homework. I will try to update everyday still :)

Monday: Read article and context clues worksheet (back of 1st page)
Tuesday: Reread article, chunk, square main ideas, and underline supporting details for EACH chunk
Wednesday: Reread article and one sentence summaries for EACH summary
Thursday: Reread and comprehension question worksheet (2nd page)
