Reading: Students are working on identifying problem/solution this week again but with a different story.  We will be using short stories or pictures books to again find the problem, solution, characters, and setting of a story.

Art: Students will learn about How Failure Leads to Success.  We watched a short clip about how Michael Jordan failed plenty of times but in the end those attempts led him to succeed in the game of basketball.  
Each student is reflecting on a topic in their life on how they have tried to complete something but have failed only later with hard work found out they could succeed.  They will be creating a digital flip book in art to show their story.
