What are we learning?

*Reading- We are working on poetry and tools authors use to make their writing more interesting. We just finished Love That Dog, and are currently reading Maniac Magee and will be reading Toliver's Secret by the end of the month!

*Writing- We are learning how to effectively respond to text based questions with evidence (R.A.C.E.):
     R- Restate the question
     A- Answer the question
     C- Cite evidence to support your answer
     E- End your response and Explain your Evidence

*Social Studies- We are learning about the Spanish and French Explorers and how they influenced North Florida...leading into the Thirteen Colonies and statehood for Florida.
