Friday

I read a book with a surprise ending to illustrate how to write this type of ending.  We then went to the computer lab to work on our stories.

In reading, we did a new type of note-taking called the Bulls-Eye.  This is where students read a selection and then determine what is the essential message of the reading. That goes in the middle.  Then, what's important, but not necessary goes in the next tier.  Finally, what's nice to know goes in the outer tier.  I modeled this today. We will practice this and students will do this on the back of their reading logs which are due Friday the 11th.

In science, 6S, we finished the note taking about atoms and matter and watched Bill Nye.

The trip to HMS is on for Tuesday!
