Students took their Unit 2 Math Assessment today. I will try to get these graded and sent home by next week. Again, thank you for your patience with receiving feedback and grades! See our "Fluency Stars" below!
In Writers' Workshop, students used their checklist/ rubric to revise and edit their writing as well as the writing of their literacy partner's. I will also confer with students about any revisions we can make so as to ensure strong, meaningful writing! Hopefully these will start coming home next week, as well.
In Read Aloud, students used close reading strategies to infer ideas about characters and make meaningful predictions. Students also used our "productive talk moves" to build on and bounce of other students' thoughts.
In Word Study, students played "Letter Spin". In "Letter Spin" students are applying their knowledge of suffixes, plurals, and vocabulary to spell and define words.
In Readers' Workshop, students used the most effective evidence to prove character claims through writing.
Students went to reading Beaver Block.
In Social Studies, students are starting to publish their projects. We participate in a gallery walk next week, where students will notice and note specific characteristics and qualities of each others' thinking and projects.
