In Language Arts today the students continued to practice writing. This time, they looked at a sample essay written by a sixth grade Bryant student last year. They looked at the content and organization of the essay and matched it to the IBC planning chart we looked at yesterday.
The students also continued to learn about nouns. Today they practiced identifying personal and possessive pronouns in example sentences.
With the remainder of class time, the students continued to learn about poetry. They learned poetry vocabulary words such as poem, rhythm, rhyming pattern, stanza, verse, and refrain. We also practiced identifying these concepts in poetry. We will continue to work on this tomorrow. The students have also been assigned one lesson on IXL for additional practice on rhyming patterns in poetry. This will be due with the pronoun lessons on Friday, February 28th
Have a great evening!
