Well, what did we do in class today?
Today, we played SPARKLE and reviewed the INTER vocab words for the quiz tomorrow. Miss Devine gave out the Informational Article Project information sheet and explained that students would begin the process of crafting their own informational article which would later be part of our class magazine. Students brainstormed a long list of possible topics that they would like to research and then selected their top three topics. In class, students began filling out a K-W-L chart on these three topics. They need to finish it for homework tonight and begin to give some good thought as to what they want to write their informational article about. This is for Language Arts.
In Social Studies, Miss D returned the graded redesign maps. We talked about hemispheres, continents and oceans and then did various map labeling tasks in centers, labeling these aspects on a world map.
HOMEWORK: Instead of a Reading Response this week, students have a "Vocabulary Enricher" sheet where they are to write down 5 new vocab words from their independent reading and complete the tasks with each word. Students also need to add up their reading pages for the week and study for the INTER vocab test tomorrow.
