We are really making progress with  identifying the main idea, supporting ideas, and details. In class we have been focusing on finding Main Ideas (P1), Supporting Ideas (P2) and Details (P3) in articles and writing prompts.  The students are are quickly working their way to being independent at this skill.  Tonight's homework is a great chance to practice.  We collaborated on the article Botanists.  They should practice with the article Land of Ice and Snow. Use Botanists as a model if you get stuck.
