Today in Language Arts the students focused on argumentative writing.  We began to discuss whether or not video games are appropriate for children.  Some believe this causes us to have better hand-eye coordination and comprehension skills while others believe video games are too violent.  We will be reading articles and identifying facts tomorrow.  Today the students hovered for words they did not know in the articles.  We will be working on building a word wall tomorrow too.

In addition to learning about argumentative writing, the students were taken to the library today.  From this point forward, the students are allowed to check out multiple books at a time.  However, they are responsible for making sure they all get returned on time.

Homework:

1. Read for 20 minutes
