Wednesday

In reading today, we talked about character vs. society conflicts.  Students added to their notes and we discussed examples of those.  Students worked independently on reading to self, reading with a partner, responding to reading or meeting with me.  I collected logs and passed out the new ones which are due Wednesday.

In writing, I did a lesson about using strong verbs rather than cluttering our writing with adverbs.  Students worked on spelling work and/or their Holiday Fragrances paper.

In science today, students had time to work on their posters and their webquests.
