You are awesome.<br />Does your bundle of Close Reads go in order of difficulty: like Lesson 1 is not as complex as Lesson 20?<br />Thank you :)mrs. beaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17743287806297148748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8609605438475121764.post-2962346908344555232014-07-15T19:10:19.268-05:002014-07-15T19:10:19.268-05:00Hi there Lee Ann!

Since I created my close reads with a vision of when I would use them throughout the year I was able to make them easier or more difficult. Again, the writing will come and even if they are simply drawing a picture! Yes, I keep their writings as samples and then this upcoming year I will be standard basing a lot of their grades using our close reads :)<br /><br />TaraTarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08830755146617373916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8609605438475121764.post-76179174063624980772014-07-15T15:15:17.451-05:002014-07-15T15:15:17.451-05:00I like your book study this summer.

How early do you start your reads with your kindergartners? It seems that the questions asked on Days 3 and 4 would be difficult for them to understand in the first weeks of school, and the writing may be a struggle for some who don't know how to write letters. Also, do you ever take grades of their work to have documentation for those who are struggling with the standards? Can't wait to read about the next chapter!Lee Annnoreply@blogger.com
