Writing: We are working on Book 3 (the last book for the year) in the WEX program. This unit really tries to get students to focus on describing characters in a moment using SHOWING details. Our goal is to work through lesson 6 this week. Grammar will focus on adjectives that compare (-er/-est).
Reading/Novels: Last week, students selected a poem they wanted to analyze independently for an in-class assignment. This week, they will compare/contrast their poem with a partner. Additionally, they will continue to code the text or annotate some classic poems. My reading class/ Ms. Patton's reading class will be cancelled on Weds. due to our visit to Thomas Middle School.
We will also begin a new unit of novels. Students will switch teachers for this. I will be teaching "Worth" a book that ties nicely to what we are learning in Social Studies. We will do vocabulary practice, writing prompts, and frequent comprehension checks.
Students must read poetry for the month of April. Here is the letter template. Please also ask your child to see the rubric for their monthly project (Poem Pocket T-shirt)
Social Studies: We will finish up Chapter 16, review, and have a test on Thursday of this week. The test covers how we acquired the current territories of the United States.
