Weather
Our BIG Question: How do seasons affect the weather?
Morning Message
Dear Peaceful Poets,
This week you are writing poems and Spring is the perfect season for it. There is so much growing and changing outdoors and beauty is all around. One type of poem about nature is called a Haiku. It is a three lined poem that follows this pattern: the first line has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables and the last line has 5 syllables. Today, I noticed some daffodils popping up in my garden beds. Here is a haiku I made up:
Yellow, white and bright
Flowers appear in the ground
A sign Spring is here!
Today, you might try to write your own Haiku poem about something you see outside!
Science and English-Language Arts (ELA)
We are learning about weather all week! If you missed the Science videos and ELA directions on Monday, click on the button below to watch them. They are important and you should check them out at least once this week!
It's time to read for 20 minutes. You can read books on Myon (through classlink), at our new choice of GetEpic.com (that was explained in Monday's ELA video) or books you have at your house.
Then it's time to write for 20 minutes, maybe on google slides or maybe on your own paper. Our theme this week is POETRY, but you can also write about weather, seasons, or anything!
If you are typing your work, remember to use the same slideshow you started on Monday. You should go to classlink or google to find it. If you have not started your slideshow yet, click on the button below.
Then, it's time to practice your reading fluency. Remember to read smoothly and with expression.
IT'S BRAIN BREAK TIME!!!
