Reading
Written by: Hallie

• On Tuesday, we reread The Weaving Contest. Together we filled out a web that had setting, characters, problem, solution, lesson and other. This helped us understand the myth more.
• We read The Legend Of The Lady’s Slipper  and filled out another web. This was a legend and not a myth.
• To end the week we read The Milky Way. This was a story about how they thought the Milky Way came to be.
