Week 6 Friday Homework
Dear Parents and Students,
This weekend’s homework is to read the story Lewis and Clark and Me and complete the accompanying comprehension worksheet.
As you read, please highlight key sentences and mark any unknown words or confusing parts. This will help us focus on important details and deepen our understanding during class next Monday.
This story is a piece of historical fiction told from the perspective of Seaman, a Newfoundland dog, who joins Lewis and Clark on their expedition along the river. Students may find parts of the story challenging, especially the cultural and historical context of the westward journey, the environment, and events such as traveling by boat, hunting, and encountering new lands and people.
By identifying key ideas and questions in advance, students will be better prepared to participate in focused discussions and detailed comprehension activities next week.
Thank you for your support, and please encourage your child to read carefully and thoughtfully.
