Genre Study

This quarter we will be exploring a variety of genres. Students identified the characters, setting and sequenced the events in the fairy tale, "The Princess and the Pea." Ask your child to retell the story using sequence words such as first, next, then and lastly.

The students have also been identifying character traits using text evidence to help build comprehension. Ask your child a character trait that describes the following characters and make sure they tell you "why" using an example from the text.
