Pajama Day reading doesn’t mean rest—it means RACE! Learners are using the RACE strategy to craft strong written responses: • Restate the question • Answer it completely • Cite text evidence • Explain their reasoning #sthelenawinning
Today we said “yes” to dreams and “no” to drugs for Red Ribbon Week! Even though it’s Pajama Day, fifth graders are wide awake and working hard! Learners are recording observations on the growth of their plants as they strive to answer their phenomena question.#sthelenawinning
