We have had a busy week in LA. Students have been refreshing their memories of prepositions and prepositional phrases, and we've analyzed descriptive paragraphs and narrative paragraphs. During Writer's Workshop we have written descriptive and narrative paragraphs, and we've all started our Survival Spelling Lists.
During Writer's Workshop, students spend an uninterrupted block of time, usually 20-25 minutes, drafting works. So far we've had a specific focus, memoir paragraphs, but we will eventually move to more independent decisions as we move closer to the end of the quarter.
Next week students will take a look at expository paragraphs, and we will set a test date for the first Survival Spelling Lists. Extended dute date for that list: Monday, August 30.
Everyone have a wonderful weekend.
Fondly, Mrs. V~
