Back to School Night

What a great night!  The kids were excited to show off their iPads.  I always enjoy having families visit the classroom and watching students share their school work.  Thanks for coming, Unit C families!

The 5 Paragraph Essay

Today was Day 2 of working on the 5 paragraph essay.  We spent time looking at and pulling apart an essay about why cats make the ideal pet.  We used a new graphic organizer (as opposed to the two other organizers that have been used).  Students worked in small groups and then we checked it together on the board.  We will continue working with organizers on Thursday.
