Text Structure Vertical Groups
Students will learn about a variety of text structures authors use to inform readers. Students will be placed into vertical groups based on their MAPs data. This is the second week for these groups.
With Mr. Warrenfeltz
In science, students will work to build their models demonstrating how their chosen living organisms process information between their senses and their brains. In math, we will review adding/subtracting fractions with like and unlike denominators and students will begin to create digital or regular math board games.
With Mrs. Hartley
In ELA, students will complete a task in which they will read several texts about Maryland Government, the State House, and the Naval academy to prepare for our field trip. They will respond to a written response and will peer and self assess using the responding to text criteria we’ve established. In addition, they will complete a quick research project that will result in an oral presentation during which we will practice speaking skills (SL 4.4 and 4.5) since this has been a collective area of weakness.
