Reading - During reading the students work in daily 5 centers and guided reading groups.  The guided reading groups have stories and lessons at the students level.  We work on things like letter sounds, vowels, contractions, compound words, nouns, when to use an apostrophe, homophones, etc. - all while reading a leveled story.  When the students aren't in group, they are working on one of the daily 5 centers.  For the rest of October, all of our word work centers have something to do with Halloween.  :)
