Newsela - Completed second Newsela assignment in class. Grades to be posted shortly.
Wordly Wise - Beginning Lesson 3. Test will be next Tuesday 10/15. Novel - Up to this point, all of the chapters in the book have been vignettes in order to get to know the Watson family and to lead the reader to understand why the Watsons are going to Birmingham, AL. Ask your child to explain the "juvenile deliquent" older brother Byron. As the Watsons plan their road trip to Birmingham, the students will be planning their own personal itinerary for a road trip from Flint, MI to Birmingham, AL. They will be researching three sights to visit along the way, and then mapping the journey using Google Map. This activity will mostly be completed in class over the course of three days.

Progress Report Note- Please note that there are three more assignments that will be graded and added in the categories of Assignments and Assessments by Monday. This will probably have a positive impact on grades. These first 5 weeks of school tend to have fewer assignments in these areas as we spent the first two weeks working on routines and expectations.
Novel Study- Chapters 4-7 of The Watsons Go to Birmingham - 1963. Paired reading with an excerpt from The Wizard of Oz to compare ideas related to the theme of friendship. |
