Today in 6A & 6B

ENGLISH: We continued our lessons on the parts of a sentence, today focusing on hard to find subjects and compound subjects and verbs. This is a significant step up in difficulty from our work yesterday. Students used the online practice sheets on the www.grammarforwriting.com website (6.3 and 6.4). While this is not assigned as homework, students should understand these concepts and make use of these worksheets for practice.

LITERATURE: Today we finished "Crash". Students are now able to take a STAR reading test on this book and gain points toward their reading goals for trimester 1. As a capstone assignment, students have been assigned the task (via Google Classroom) of illustrating a comic of their favorite/most meaningful/most important scene from the book. The rubric for grading is attached to the assignment. Students were given some time today to work on this in class and should have at least one more session to work on this in class. This will be due on Tuesday, October 2, 2018.

RELIGION: We continued with our look at Abraham and his covenant with God. We examined a painting that depicts a group of people dancing the Hora.

SOCIAL STUDIES: Students continued their work in creating their infographics for the Stone Age Agricultural revolution. This is due (submitted on Google Classroom) at the start of class tomorrow.
