Daily Reading Response

Each day we read and respond to texts, not just in preparation for the ELA, but because the ability to draw conclusions and support those ideas with evidence is fundamental to positive personal development.  This day we read the text My Best Friend by Mary Ann Rodman.  Here are some notes to support comprehension, as well as a sample response:

Gabriela did an excellent job not only identifying the lesson, but supporting it with specific details from the text.  She used excellent transitions and wrote a beautiful conclusion further illuminating the big idea while still tying it in to the details of that specific text.  My only advice is to be sure to capitalize proper nouns, including names such as Tamika.  Outstanding work!!!
