Week in Review

                                                           September 28th- October 2nd

Reading:

• We received a new reading rubric for Growing Ideas About Characters. We used this to help us lift our level of thinking about the characters in our stories. AD
• We developed character theories for our characters in the Tiger Rising. MR
• We are jotting more about our characters and beginning to notice how they are complicated! AA
• When a character acts differently around different people or in different situations we notice this because it can signal that our character is complex! CN

Writing:

• We learned about the different lenses writers use when they revise! CL
• We finished our realistic fiction drafts! GG
• Using a checklist, we are editing our pieces! BV
• Editing and revising are two different things- Editing is fixing the grammar of our writing and revising is fixing the craft of our writing. LK

• We started xtra math in school and at home. JW
• We played Multiple Turnover to help us find multiples. LD
• We are currently trying to figure out: What are the factors of 100? How many factor pairs does it have? and How do mathematicians find factors of #'s and make sure they have them all? AA

Library:
