BW: Draw a VENN diagram on loose leaf. Use the VENN diagram to compare and contrast Victor and his best friend, Michael. They are both characters in “Seventh Grade” by Gary Soto.
Report card #2 is ending soon! Sorry but we will need a big fat TEST next week!
Today in class we tried a practice quiz about the “easy” words that aren’t so easy. I showed the students how to write one word definitions for each of the words.
We also reviewed the plot diagram or “mountain”. For the classwork, students had to choose:
- work alone with the book closed = A+
- quietly work in a group with the book closed = A
- quietly work in a group with the book open = B
This classwork was kinda/sorta like a quiz so it was worth 15 points instead of 5 points.
