Tuesday/Wednesday

Sorry, I forgot to post yesterday.
We had math homework and a math test today.....I hope you studied.

Today,
In social studies we are working to finish our R.A.F.T. Project where we become a colonial character and write or produce a story about how the colonies came to be and how they impacted the native Americans.  This is due Tuesday.

Students may work on this at home.

On Friday and Monday we will be working on the cardboard challenge. Students who wish for time to work on the R.A.F.T. may have it. I will find a quiet place for them.  I will also accept it being finished over vacation.

We are also continuing to hone our essay writing skills. We are all writing a character essay on the Third Pig of the Three Little Pigs and proving the claim "The Third Little Pig is intelligent." We are trying to sound sophisticated and scholarly in our essay writing.

Next we will write a character essay on our own on a book we have read this month.  This will also be due the week we return from vacation (although I have not decided the exact day...it will depend on how far we get this week.)

Tonight's homework:
Work to finish RAFT for social studies
Read read read
