The sun is shining and it's outdoor recess! Hooray!
In reading today, I book talked some realistic fiction books. Then students read to self or responded to reading on the blog. I conferred with readers during this time. I collected reading logs today as well.
In writing, we continued our work on our essays. I conferred with some to help them through the process. I will try to meet with everyone at least once. We will start on the introduction and conclusion next week.
In science today, I checked all project questions and hypotheses. We then went over the science scenarios that we worked on in class. Students should have a good handle on these scenarios for the upcoming test. We also started some more scenarios picking out the different parts of them. The next step (Step 2) which includes a materials list and procedures is due November 17.
