What's on tap for this week? We will continue with our spelling lessons. This week, we are focusing on words with unstressed endings. We are also going to be using rainbow editing while we revise and edit our first narrative writing assignment. The students have been creating a personal narrative on a great memory they have. I have embedded skills into this work including: nouns, verbs, paragraph structure, using descriptive language, point of view, and setting the mood. Students will work together, share their stories and help eachother revise and edit. They will then write a final draft for grading.
Social studies brings us to the first empires of the world. We will talk about the Assyrians, the Chaldeans, and Babylon. It's almost time for our first big test! We'll work together to summarize our first unit and create a study guide.
