Reading- In reading this week we will continue our  journey with Edward Tulane. The vocabulary in the text is very rich and interesting.  The author is really challenging the students to become better readers.   We will continue to close read a passage from the book discussing the author's feelings about Edward and using text evidence to show how he feels.  The students will use their reading journal to responds to text dependent questions about the story.
