In Language Arts today, the students finished peer editing.  We focused on conventions and word choice during our class time today.  We discussed how our vocabulary words can be used in our writing.  We also looked at commonly misspelled words among the students. All final drafts will be due on Friday.  The rough draft and peer editing rubric should be submitted with this as well.  I have added a copy of the peer editing rubric to this blog post.

The students also continued their introduction to our newest unit today.  We have been discussing whether or not adults can have an impact on our lives.  Today we discussed people we would consider to be our heros.  We talked about superheroes and looked at a video of some of the superheros that our well known in our society.  I have added the video we watched to this blog post.

Have a wonderful Wednesday evening!
