Week 4 Day 3

Watch this video again to recap our discussions today on main idea and supporting details.
What is the difference between speaking 'subjectively' and speaking 'objectively?'

http://www.brainpop.com/english/writing/mainidea/

Tips on how to use popplet below:


No Math H/W tonight. We start Unit 2 tomorrow

Reading Response:
You need to have 2 categories and x3 pieces of evidence per category (approx. 6 sticky notes in total). Try to write using a variety of sentence openers and integrate compound sentences for bonus points (or even Sammy Snakes)

Impressive writing today from EMMA and CAROLINE.. .not bad for just 30mins! Shows what you guys can do when truly focused

    Han - Did you try it on both computers? Don't stress about it all night. Double check that you are typing in the correct information and caplock is not on. Try closing down your computer. If all this fails, create you mindmap on a piece of paper and we'll pop it into a popplet tomorrow.

    You just have your popplet and reading response for me. You may want to upload your piece of writing to a youpublish account. We will be making our own books on that site this year.

    Anybody who posts their finished popplet link on the blog wins +1

    Nakul, it's more than just an opinion. You are evaluating the story from a subjective criteria. - just to scary you with terminology.

    Who can find my mistake above?

    For some reason the internet is going slow today. Also is the reading reponse and popplet the only homework we have? By the way Anisha where are the photos of the books on the library page?
