We finished our ITBS testing today!!
We began learning about three of the countries that Flat Stanley is visiting/has visited. The students chose the country they wanted to learn and research about. The students will be presenting information to the rest of the class through read alouds, writing paragraphs, and giving a presentation at the end of the unit.
Germany: Madi, JaShon, Abby, and Ian
Japan: Sabine, Collin, Ava, and Josie
Mexico: Julia, Sam, and Emma
This afternoon we wrote descriptive paragraphs about Pecos Bill in small groups. Next week we will write our own paragraphs about the tall tale character we have chosen to study.
We are no longer bringing home reading logs to record our daily reading time. Instead, the students will be entering this information on the wiki. This will allow students to be able to share what they're reading with each other as well as reduce the amount of paper being used. Below is the link to the wiki:
