Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers. Recount stories, including fables, folktales, and myths from diverse cultures; determine the central message, lesson, or moral and explain how it is conveyed through key details in the text. Determine the main idea of a text; recount the key details and explain how they support the main idea. Describe characters in a story (e.g. their traits, motivations, or feelings) and explain how their actions contribute to the sequence of events.

Each quarter will be broken into 3 15-day units. Each unit will address one of the 3 main standards. All quarters will follow this plan: Unit 1: 3.RL.1/3.I.1 Unit 2: 3.RL.2/3.I.2 Unit 3: 3.RL.3/3.I.3 We will increase the level of rigor each quarter, using Bloom's taxonomy to frame our progression.

Our Wiki is set up by quarter. On each quarter page, we will update each unit plan as we work throughout the summer.
