This week is language arts, we have been practicing objective summaries. First we read Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree and practiced writing an objective summary together. Then, we each practiced writing one using a different children's book. We also read an article on what happened on September 11th, 2001 and wrote a RAFT reflection. Each person got to choose a reason, audience, and format for this topic. We read examples of these beautiful pieces to the class. We have NWEA testing on Tuesday, September 16th! Make sure to eat a good breakfast and get a good night sleep!
