This was explained in class, materials were given.
Think of a real problem around the world. (homelessness, hunger, war, disasters, disease) Think of an invention that would solve that problem.
On the lined paper write a paragraph explaining your invention. Remember that a paragraph starts with a topic sentence and includes three supporting details.
On the blank paper, draw a picture or diagram illustrating your invention.
Use your TFK for inspiration.
Spelling Unit 12 is also due.

Last week in November
Long time, no post!
This week we have started our CSAP (soon to be named TCAP) test prep unit. We are reviewing strategies for answering multiple choice questions and constructed responses. In addition, we are writing to prompts and reviewing rubrics to assess and improve our writing.
On Wednesday, students had Book Club meeting number 4. Remember book club notebooks are due each Tuesday of the week.
In poetry, we practiced "multiple readings for multiple meanings". First we use the five finger overview. Next we read for enjoyment. Then we read for deeper meaning and understanding.
Spelling Test and Reading Logs on Friday. Lets get 100%
Did you read your Thanksgiving Poem to your family? What was their reaction?
