Test Tomorrow

In Writers' Workshop, students are learning how to organize their writing using paragraphs.  Yesterday, students learned that anytime time moves forward or backward a lot, we make a new paragraph.  Today, students learned that anytime the setting changes, we also make a new paragraph.  Students reread their personal narrative drafts, editing to show where they will indent when they publish (see below).

 

In Readers' Workshop, students payed special attention to how characters treat each other and noticed patterns.  We use these patterns to develop complex character theories.

In Math Workshop, we spent time reviewing for our assessment tomorrow.  Students have a review for homework, due tomorrow.

In Social Studies, students finished their informational comic strips about citizenship.

In Word Study, students created and labeled letters within verbs to apply their knowledge of the CVC rule when adding suffixes.

Homework:
  • Math review 
  • Read 20 minutes 
Reminders:
  • Unit 2 Math Assessment: Tomorrow
  • Picture Retake Day: Tuesday, November 17.
  • American Education Week: November 16-20.  If you are planning on coming in for American Education Week, please be sure to send in a list of planned visitors. Thank you!
