December Updates
Writing:
We have been working on our animal reports!
Here is some of what we've learned, so far:
**taking notes using the FQR format (fact-question-response)
**writing rough drafts of our introductions, main idea sections, and conclusions
**deciding where we can include our own thoughts/feelings/connections
**beginning to revise our rough drafts (adding sensory words and "vivid" verbs)
Look for more information regarding reports to come home before our winter vacation. At this point, this has been a CLASS assignment.
Science:
We're learning about magnets. We will explore the properties of magnets. (Do magnets attract all metal objects? How do magnets behave with each other?)
Spelling:
Look for spelling practice activities to return after the break...
**Don't forget: our field trip/class party will be on Friday, December 17.
