Today in 6A & 6B

ENGLISH: Our students have embarked on a new writing composition, a professional letter to Santa! Students first need to determine the purpose of this letter (request to be on the nice list, request for specific toys, request to visit me first, request to add someone to the naughty list, etc) and then write in a professional tone to the big man up north. There is an attached template that will help students see how to format their letters (tomorrow). For tomorrow's class, students need to be prepared to share their first draft with classmates for peer editing.

RELIGION: In this week's "Christmas" lesson we look at the similarities and differences between The Holy Family and our own families. Additionally we looked at ways how our actions may bring us closer to God and how they might put distance between us and God.

SOCIAL STUDIES: As a bridge between our India unit and our next unit on Buddhism and Hinduism, we used an online generator to create our own personal mandalas. Students submitted their design on the Google Classroom assignment page and had copies printed for them to color. Tomorrow's class will see them finish coloring these designs to be displayed outside our classroom. Students will have access to this generator for their own amusement as long as it is still operational. Enjoy!
