Reading Groups
We have been focusing on poetry and how Figurative Language helps us as readers better understand/comprehend what is happening within the text. Figurative Language metaphorically paints a picture in our minds as we read. AMAZING! Now we know as we read, to pay attention to detail.

We are becoming fluent readers and implementing what we have learned in our writing. Reading is Writing and Writing is Reading, "Hey that's a metaphor!" :-)
