Today in Language Arts the students reflected on our big question, “What can we do to help others see things from our point of view?” \u00a0They are to write three paragraphs for this reflection. \u00a0The first one focuses on their prior knowledge of the topic. \u00a0They are using their sticky not from The Big Idea Board to help them do this. \u00a0The second paragraph focuses on what they now know. \u00a0We worked on this piece in class today. \u00a0The last paragraph focuses on what they are still curious about or confused about when it comes to argumentative writing and debate. \u00a0The students were given time in class to work on this but it is due on Monday.<\/p>\n
The class also took their vocabulary test today and turned in their Great Lakes Essay. \u00a0I will have the vocabulary tests grades posted by the end of the weekend. \u00a0Ms. Thomas and I will both be grading the essay because we worked on this assignment in both of our classes. \u00a0We will have these graded before the students go on break on the 19th. \u00a0We both need to read these essays so please bare with us as we work through this process.<\/p>\n
We will be starting The Giver on Monday. \u00a0If your child has their own copy of the book, this will be our “textbook” through January and they are to bring it every day. \u00a0If your child does not have their own copy, one will be provided for them.<\/p>\n
