Wednesday was choice book activity day at ACMS. We spent the morning doing activities in groups based on the choice book we read this summer.
In class, we re-did our vocab sheets to make sure that everyone understood the directions, as Ms. T and Ms. D discovered some misunderstanding when grading them. We shared our homework on family traditions/customs.
Then, we talked about evaluating, or making judgments when you read. Students read chapter 6 from Seedfolks (Sam's chapter) and practiced making evaluations as we read. We answered these two evaluative questions at the end of class:
1. Do you think Sam can change the world by smiling?
2. Do you think people should use wire and fencing to keep others out of their gardening space?
HMK: Sam talked a lot about what he believed in the chapter we read today. Tonight, find an artifact or a couple of artifacts to represent what you or your family believes/values.
