Weekly Reflection

H/W - Due Tuesday September 24th.
Blog post  - You must write a short, but very specific blog post that discusses your learning over this first stage of the year. What content have we covered (taught)? What do you really feel good about (learned)? What still confuses you? What do you want to work on the most on your return from CWW?
Add an image & an effective title to your blog post.

Congratulations on finishing your first set of RLA Units. We still have our final memoir paper to write; otherwise, we will be starting new units after CWW.

6th Grade Grammar Review
Thursday 26th Sept, we will do a very quick 'parts of speech' review. Before this date - make sure you have tested yourself on your knowledge on parts of speech using these links. An understanding of 'parts of speech' is vital if you are going to be successful with the new content that we will introducing in grammar.
Parts of Speech Review
A little harder

If you are unsure on any of the parts of speech and their usage, bring these questions to class on Tuesday 24th.

New RLA Units for after CWW
  • Reading - Thinking Deeply about Characters
  • Book Clubs - Short Stories and Full Novel
  • Word Study - Unit 2 Roots
  • Grammar - Opening and Delayed Adjectives and Adverbs
  • Writing - Finish memoir and on to Research Based Persuasive Arguments 
Keep your independent reading habits up to date and your reading log. (not on CWW of course)

Subjects and Predicates Scores posted
Learning is the focus. If you would like to improve your grade by taking another assessment. See me after CWW. 

CWW is a great time for collecting memorable moments that might help you with your final memoir paper. Will you experience changes or have an epiphany?

Next blog post will be Monday Sept 23rd. Have a great CWW experience. I plan to!
