After lunch students wrote great stories about Thanksgiving from the turkey's point of view or perspective. Then as a class we shared what we were thankful for, and wrote notes to people we were thankful to have in our lives.
I am very thankful to be teaching these terrific fifth graders.
I hope you all have a wonderful rest of your week and a terrific Thanksgiving!
A Look at next Week:
Social Studies- We will begin reviewing Chapter 4 and take an assessment by Friday the 1st.
ELA
Reading- We will read Ch. 6 of Touching Spirit Bear, and students will be discussing the perspective the story is told from.
Language Arts- We will continue to revise our narratives, making sure we are adding relevant detail to our stories. Students will also be learning to read through the lens of a writer, and learning from mentor texts.
