Classroom Happenings
ELA- Ms. Kraushaar
This week’s focus was on examining poetry and its qualities in order to create poems of our own. We looked at mentor texts and tried a cool technique to create a poem out of a run-on sentence. Students are asked to blog 2 times per week and comment on 3 other writers’ blogs.
Next week, we’ll be shifting our focus to reading. We’re going to read some short stories and write our opinions about certain aspects.
Science- Mrs. Tobey
Social Studies- Mr. Cahn
We wrapped up the Middle Ages in Europe this week with important events and political developments that helped bring this period to an end, such as the Crusades, the Black Death, the Magna Carta, among others.
Next week we will shift our focus to what is going on in West African kingdoms around this same time.
