3rd Grade Book Club News...

We just complete our first book, The Cricket in Times Square by George Selden. During our club meetings, we discussed each week the previous chapters read by the students. We completed comprehension questions online, orally, and written when working with a partner. The students were offered Chinese Chicken Fried Rice as a snack when we read about Mario visiting a Chinese restaurant in China Town in New York. We will have the opportunity to watch the video of The Cricket in Times Square as a summary of the book. The students will complete one final project activity which will be displayed in the media center.
We are real excited to be starting our new novel, The Littles by John Peterson.
