We had our late start this morning with our second "C-Time". Students came in and worked on their writers' notebooks. Then, we had a snack break.
In reading, we began our discussion of the Book Talk assignment. All students need to prepare a book talk for Friday. It must be on a book that has been finished in sixth grade, preferably one that has been finished recently. Students may not use enrichment reading books. The criteria was given out today in class. Students have chosen to give the report in front of the class or be recorded on the computer and have it be shown in class. The purpose of the book talk is to "sell" the book to the class so that others will want to read it. Please let me know if you have any questions about the requirements.
In science (6S), we did the lesson on density that 6F did yesterday. Students are trying to figure out the density of water using Triple Beam Balances as well as graduated cylinders. Fun!
