Description
These 3rd grade August reading lessons give you four weeks of back to school read aloud lessons and activities.
Rooted in Reading for 3rd grade gives you everything you need to build a love of reading in your classroom. Each week centers on a read aloud. You read the book throughout the week and model how to think deeply, ask questions, and monitor comprehension, while students work through activities made for 3rd grade.
