Class activities for Thursday, October 25
Spelling: We reviewed contractions today.
Cursive: Ten cursive sentences of seven or more words each are due on Fridays.
Reading: Today was a discussion day in Literature Circles.
Writing: We talked using details to change the speed of a story. Important scenes should have lots of dialogue, action and visual details. That will slow the scene down so the reader can understand what is happening. Less important scenes can move faster when the write includes fewer details.
The next piece of writing, a fictionalized personal narrative, will be due on Friday, November 2. Students should be revising at this point.
Math: We practiced estimating products today. Homework is to finish Journal P3-3.
Science: None today due to art.
Social Studies: We played a game to review the differences between American Indian cultural regions.
