The work we have been doing during Week 7 was more in depth than I had first thought it would be. Therefore in LA we will continue to work on our poetry reading and our poetry collection. Students will be completing 5 types of poems this week. One of them is a completed draft at this time. In addition to that focus, students continue to work in stations to practice dictionary skills, poetry analysis, non-fiction reading, vocabulary, "Show Don't Tell" writing station, and a social studies station based on the first native people who lived in Texas.
Our transparencies came in on the 6th, so we will finally get to do our Texas map overlays project. It's all in class, so don't worry, Mom and Dad. :)
Check out the upcoming dates to see what's going on at Baldwin.
