happy 2016

It is hard to believe, but it is true!  It is already 2016 and we are half way through our school year!  This week, we are beginning a new unit on Literary Genres.  We are studying all of the different Fiction and Non-Fiction Genres, such as:  Fantasy, Mystery, Adventure, Science Fiction, Historical Fiction, Realistic Fiction, Traditional Literature, Poetry, Biography, Autobiography, and Graphic Novels.  We will spend about 4 or 5 weeks on this unit and then will wrap it up with an Assessment.  If you are ever stuck on what to check out, think about what your favorite Genre is and try searching for a book that way!
