Writing:
- The students listened to and discussed the story Down The Road. We explored how a character’s emotions can change over time, and the students wrote a personal narrative about a time they felt grown up or were able to do something all by themselves. They focused on organizing their story with a clear beginning, middle, and end and adding their emotions.
Social Studies Update:
Our Studies Weekly magazine focused on What is History? The students learned about primary sources of information. Our Scholastic News this week was Making Magic Dragons. The students learned how author Tracey West comes up with dragon characters. Finally, our Amazeworks book was Love is in the Hair.
