A fair amount of work was accomplished during our writing time this morning. Each of the fifth graders has crafted a lead paragraph for their opinion pieces. Today's time was spent writing our first body paragraphs, with special attention given to including quality factual evidence. We will return to this important work on Thursday.
We also began an incredibly interesting activity during our science time. After finishing our food web posters last week the kids turned their attention to designing a biosphere for a potential research mission. This will be an ongoing project over the next two weeks. The kids were heavily invested in this today.
Homework
