Third grade

Before the break I had explained to  the children that I would offer them the option for extra credit in reading during the break. The assignment for that is as follow.

1. Read a story and create a story map. The story map should include the title of story, author, characters, setting( time/place), plot, conclusion. The plot must be in sequence order.

2. Explain the Authors purpose and  the main idea of the story and it's supporting details.

3. Draw a picture of any aspect of the story.

4. This can be done in any way as long as the information is there, be creative.

5. . Worth 100 points. Since its extra credit, its optional and it's due May 2, 2011, or when you child goes back to school from break. 

-If you are going to do this with your child, check out the websites under fourth grade as the skills and strategies are the same for all grades. The following link on story elements will provide a great start with the assignment.
