Hi everyone!
Great work finishing the first checklist! We are starting to get into our groove, and the feedback I’m getting is that you’re enjoying the book and the journal prompts. That’s great news. You also gave me the feedback that you didn’t enjoy doing vocabulary the way we did it, so I removed that from our checklist. Instead, we’re going to look at the characters in more depth and talk about the theme, setting, and plot of the story. (Yes, I am listening to you and reading your self-assessments and feedback request forms!)
I’ve posted the new checklists under the checklist tab on this blog. I’ll hand them out in class, but as always, if you need another, you know where to find it. Oh, and we’re having our first literature circles this week, and I think you’re going to like them.
Have a fantastic week,
Ms. Shilo
