In Language Arts today I collected the students’ SSR Logs. This is done after the students read in class and is collected monthly for credit. The students are not required to log after they read at home. I will have grades updated by the end of the day to reflect scores.
After reading, the students continued to practice mood and tone by looking at the movie, Frozen. They also looked at the facial expressions of characters to determine what their tone of voice may be based on what their face looks like.
Additionally, we spent time in class learning the types of non-fiction. Then, the students were given an overview of a few books and they were asked to determine the genre of the book with their elbow partner.
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
Homework:
- Read for 20 minutes
