A Peek at this Week

Soft Start










A Look at this Week:
 ELA
Reading- We will be reviewing similes and metaphors, do a close-read of Langston Hughes's poem, "Mother to Son," and will be introduced to the vocabulary for Teammates:  segregation, prejudice, apathetic, intimidate, humiliation, hostility, taunt, and provoke.
Language Arts- We will have our first Writing Workshop where we will begin drafting ideas for our Narratives.  Students will be brainstorming about small moments they have had with people who are important to them.  
Word Work- Students will be working on word parts from List 2:  alter, anti, bi, geo, ology, and script.

Science-  We will have a Chapter 1 assessment on Wednesday, where students write a scientific explanation answering our chapter question:  Why don't we see a lot of stars in the daytime?
