Today was a busy day in ELA. Students wrote and designed their final drafts for their Best Part of Me writings. I am so excited to read everyone's final drafts this weekend and will be sending home rubrics next week (fingers crossed).
While students were working, I met with each student individually to give them their book level and check their notebook organization. The majority of their ELA notebooks are super organized, but some students have some work to do. They are always welcome to come in at lunch (when I am free) to organize their notebook. :) Book levels look a little different this year as we are using letters instead of numbers. The levels are on an A-Z scale. Students will get constant updates on their levels and will record them in their notebooks. Students' book bags should be filled with about 3-4 books, with 2 of the books being on their level and 1 slightly below (as a "rest" book) and one slightly above (as a "push" book). I will be working hard with each student to make sure they are reading from books that are perfect for them and interest them.
