Thursday we had a writing lesson called Show Me Don't Tell Me, which focuses on adding detail and description in writing. We got into a very exciting part of the Global Read Aloud and found out that Amal has become a servant to a powerful oppressive landlord. What will happen next? After more practice finding GCF/LCM in math, we had our big 50 word review test to see if we are retaining the vocabulary we have been building up over the last 5 weeks. We finished off the week working on our personal collages in art. Several students are finishing up and the collages are looking great. Have a fantastic long weekend!! |
