Hi parents,
We had a pretty good day today.
In the morning, we learned about sentence structure, and how to combine two simple sentences into a compound sentence, using conjunctions. We learned the acronym FANBOYS, which stands for: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so - 7 great conjunctions to be aware of for writing. I noticed in many of the kids' dinosaur paragraphs, the word 'so' was often used incorrectly.
We visited the book fair and did the spelling quiz. In the afternoon, we did Music, Social Emotional Learning, and had some more time to work on novel study stuff. The students also assembled their 'student-led conferences' folders, which contain:
-Leprechaun Trap Rubric
-Dinosaur Paragraph
-Division Check-In
-Spelling Quiz
-Novel Study / Novel
-Information about the Book in a Box project
It'd be great to have that folder handy for online conferences today and tomorrow so we can talk about the work. :)
Talk soon, and if we haven't booked a conference (please email me right away if you'd still like to book!), have a wonderful Spring break!
Zac
