I substituted for Liam's reading class. Liam read a passage titled "The Scavenger Hunt". This was a story of children working together to collect musical items that started with letters A-Z. We reviewed the vocabulary words "locate," "settle," "uncover," and "retrieved" in the text. We worked on word structure by counting syllables. We practiced identifying themes, the problem, and the climax. We wrote reflections on the content and on feelings that characters might have experienced.
