Friday
We spent some time using Today's Meet to review short story terms and devices. Afterwards, we went to the library to work on the project for Socials that is due next Tuesday.
Thursday
After silent reading, I introduced the idea of creating a chart about a topic (individual choice) related to black bears. You can make a bar chart, pie chart, column chart or stacked graph to display your information. You are to go online and find information about the particular subject related to black bears and copy and paste the info into a document. Then you are to use that information to make a chart to transform it into a different type of text.
Wednesday
We checked out Today's Meet and did tried to do a rotating story that everyone contributed to. It sort of worked - I think with a bit more practice this can work! Next we did a Know Wonder Learn about black bears in preparation for reading the text Wolf and Bear. The KWL chart must be done on the computer or a phone and sent to your e-portfolio.
Tuesday
I handed out a WIKA(what I know already) sheet today before we looked at the video about the First Peoples in North America. During the rest of the video next week, continue to track the information you are picking up on the WIKA page. For the last 30 minutes, there was time to work on the project that is due in one week. Plan you time well, and don't wait until next Monday night to get started!
Monday
After gathering up the study guides, I went around and spoke to everyone individually about the topic for their project and their presentation strategy. By tomorrow, you should have broken down the project into manageable tasks so that you can be finished in time to present next Tuesday.
