The next two days in Language Arts are going to look different than they typically would.\u00a0 During Block One today we had an assembly and I will be in a meeting tomorrow afternoon missing half of Block Two and all of Block Three.\u00a0 Since I am not seeing all of my students over the course of these two days, I am blogging about what the students will be doing in class over the next two days.\u00a0 Depending on when they have me, not all of my blocks will be at the same place at the same time.\u00a0 By the end of the day on Wednesday, everyone will be in the same place and I will update my blog at that time.<\/p>\n
Today and tomorrow the students will be spending time learning about the 6+1 Traits that we use for writing at Bryant Middle School.\u00a0 We will specifically be focusing on ideas, organization, and presentation over these next two days. We will learn about the others later on in the week.<\/p>\n
The students will also be spending time learning how to format a letter.\u00a0 Then, they will learn about writing a letter of complaint.\u00a0 The students will be given an assignment to write a letter of complaint about “All Summer in a Day”. They will be given the choice to write to the director about something he\/she changed in the movie that should have remained true to the book or they can write a letter to author, Ray Bradbury, about something the movie added that should have been included in the original story. They will be working on the rough draft of this letter in class and I will meet with students on Wednesday to review their progress.<\/p>\n
The students are also continuing to learn about helping and linking verbs.\u00a0 Some practice problems were added to Google Classroom before the break so students can practice.<\/p>\n
Have a great evening and thanks for your patience as we balance a crazy schedule!<\/p>\n
