Brrrr!!!

Grade 6 students, I sure hope you remember the 5 elements of a story!!!! 

Today we watched a video about these 5 elements which included a rap describing each and providing examples. I know I have the chorus running through my head!

Remember to review these and stay focused as we identify each of the elements of The Breadwinner. We will be continuing on with chapters 3-5 this week.

Make sure you do not fall behind on the questions!

I have been reading the "Letters to the future me" written last week. Many are well-written and identify a variety of great goals. I think the students will really enjoy reading them in June!

In relation to this and other writing activities, students will be given a chance to evaluate their own writing and decide what their strengths and areas of improvement are. As a class we will be looking at samples of student writing and identifying positives and mistakes. By examining exemplars, I am hoping students will strive to improve and always do their best! I am finding many are settling for just "good enough".

Let's work hard this week Grade 6!!!
