Students wrapped up the week by continuing their hard work during our ELA block. My writers are making significant progress in their opinion writing pieces. Today, students looked at supplementing their writing with quotations. We talked about both the proper formatting and just what makes a good quote. Next week, we will continue our work as we make our way to publishing.
Earlier in the day, students were able to hear the original War of the Worlds radio broadcast. Students have recently begun their European explorer unit. To launch this unit we have been talking about the idea of perspectives and what tends to happen when two foreign cultures come into contact with one another.
I hope everyone enjoys their weekend.
Homework
Character Trait project - today students were given directions for a character trait project that is due on November 13th. The directions are fairly straightforward, but if there is any confusion or questions that I can help to answer, please don't hesitate to contact me.
