Monday 10-17-16

We began a new unit in language arts today READING WORKSHOP. We reignited our reading journals writing about what kind of readers we are.

For Global Read Aloud (The BFG) we looked at the practice of summarizing using Somebody Wanted But So Then as categories. We will apply this to the BFG and our own novels.

This unit will focus a bit on summarizing but much more on theme, character and comparing texts for theme.

In the afternoon we read chapter 9 and visited the nurse for hearing screenings.

Tomorrow we will have a pre-assessment in reading for using theme in two texts.

Homework tonight:

Math: Worksheet handed out from Mr. Meadows

LA: Writing journal - write to this prompt or choose your own.
Write about a character (could be you) that has to eat something really gross.

Read your novel for 20 minutes.
