In Language Arts today the students spent time reviewing for their vocabulary test tomorrow.
The students were also introduced to the folktale project we will be working on in class for the next week. The students got to select groups of three as well as a folktale to create their project around. I have attached the checklist of items that must be included with the project as well as the guided note sheet to help them through the story. This project will be worth 50 summative points and the students will be given 60 minutes in class each day for the next week to complete the project. We will begin presenting our powerpoints and scrapbook pages next Thursday. This assignment will heavily impact the students’ grades for fifth marking.
I am currently in the process of grading the literary analysis essays. I have completed 4th hour’s papers and am currently working on 3rd hour’s. Please note, until I am done, grades will be inaccurate but I am working as quickly as possible to get them updated. Only 4th hour’s grades are accurate as of today.
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
