Feb. 16, 2017: Thursday

Here are what our objectives were for today:
  • Language Arts/Reading - discuss revision/editing strategies for story writing, wrote adverbs that tell "where", and it was storytelling time. Today Josh had to tell a story about a giant penguin and Stetson had to share a story about being invisible. Great job was done by both!
 

  • Social Studies - gave examples of how cultures are different
  • Math - reviewed division for the quiz tomorrow
  • ECA - we had a little computer lesson where I showed the students how to attach a document into an email, and how to write something in Word. They should be more prepared for their Language Arts assignment now.
HOMEWORK:
1) Social Studies - please create your own culture (you can pretend you live in a new country) and share your culture. Please give an example for each of the following: food, language (write the word for "Hello"), clothing, and holidays. Remember, this is not for a Taiwanese culture, it's for your own made-up culture, so have fun with it, but try to be realistic. Also, please draw a family portrait showing some of these cultural beliefs. 

2) Language Arts - choose 6 spelling words and write a sentence for each word, and include an adverb in each sentence. Ex: My dad walked to the kitchen carefully.

3) Reading Logs

4) Language Arts - Story writing - good copy. As a reminder, you need to take your time to revise and edit your story. It will take some time, so please follow the suggestions I wrote in your notebook and you can work on it a little bit at a time. Be sure to proofread it a few times. You will email your good copy to me by Wednesday, Feb. 22 at: eyaremchuk@diskg.net 

NOTICES:
- spelling test and math quiz tomorrow
- Secret message - Thank you
- tickets for the movie day are on sale, please bring your $60NT to buy your entry
- PE tomorrow, please wear your house shirts

Have a great evening!

Mr. Y
