My Project

One of the units we have in science is extreme weather conditions. My students are very interested and engaged about learning about the different weather phenomena but are struggling to read and spell grade level texts and books that are available in class.

I want my students to be able to read and spell better when they are learning about one of their preferred topics, extreme weather!

We will use these leveled books to activate our brains and find out cool exciting information about extreme weather. We will use the magnetic boards and letters in order to read and spell simple and hard vocabulary words we are learning in class.
