Just a brief note this week.
As always, we had a good class today. In addition to our Quick Writes and Words of the Day, we had a discussion about common errors & corrections for the rough drafts of the News Story. Then, we broke into small groups to discuss the assigned poems. Finally, for our grammar section I taught the students how to use the semicolon using Reese's peanut butter cups as an object lesson.
A gentle reminder: Masks are still required at CHAT (including in the classroom) unless a student's parents have contacted Mrs. Nelson or Mrs. Johnson. I often ask students to temporarily pull down their masks when I am having a hard time hearing their comments, but otherwise, the masks should be on.
Assignments for Next Week:
Poetry: Whitman (p. 25), Dickenson (p. 27), Burgess (p. 39), Frost (p. 44), Sandburg (p. 46), Williams (p. 48), Hughes (p. 53)
Note: All of the poems are in the book and can also be found on this Google Classroom post: Week 13 Poetry
Be blessed this weekend!
