Happy Friday
Today in LA we practice our typing. Then we head off to the library. Make sure you get your books for the weekend and next week. We don't get to the library very often.
In Iblock we put our evidence into our big Evidence Binders kept at school. Parents may want to check these out sometime. They can be taken home for a night and returned the next day by parent request. All assessments are in these binders. This includes our three great personal narratives.
In social studies, we continue to research for our Vermont History Day projects.
In LA we had big discussion about horrible news when doing current events. We need to self monitor as we now live in the immediate access of the world wide web. Also, even very legitimate news sources are posting bad news. I personally stay away from it. I don't watch videos of horrible violence and therefore don't watch a lot of news, but I still get informed through print and radio.
Also, students are reminded of the need for source citing on current events journals and writing their own opinions of the event.
Ms. Lamb will now commit to grading journals every Friday and posting on Schoology.
This weeks assignments included word study packet, 20 notes, three journal entries. (Remember, all Wednesday journals go in your science journal now - everyone writes about science.)
Have a great weekend everyone.
