Happy Wednesday!

Good morning!  How are you this morning?  We have a full day today, so I will get right to our assignments. 

Today's Assignments:

AM Work / Wordly Wise:  (20 min)

Please do the Wednesday activities for the grammar and math morning work.  Wordly Wise #17 C is also your responsibility.  

Reading: (30 min)

Today is a reading comprehension pack that will focus on the skills of point of view and inferences.  Read the story and answer the questions.  Be sure to include text evidence for all of you written answers and write in complete sentences.  
When you complete the comprehension packet, you can go back to IXL and work on the skills I assigned earlier this week, if you have not achieved mastery.  G.1 &2, H.3, R.3,4, &5.  

Writing: (20 min)

I am going to post a few anchor charts for you in the class notebook.  One is an editing checklist another consists of thought prompts to help you write deeper about yourself in your memoir, and the third one is one we created together on how to structure a memoir.  Depending on where you are with your writing, they should come in handy today as you spent your time today working on your memoir.  I am not going to do a mini lesson, as the deadline is approaching and we all are in very different spots with our writing.  You all need to focus on what you need to do to meet the deadline of Friday, May 8 to have your memoir completed.  
****Create a plan of what you want to have done today and post that goal****
****Look at the anchor charts I posted for you****
****Write Write Write****
Spend your time today writing. 

Math: (30 min)

Go back to Khan Academy and do the activities that we were supposed to do yesterday.  We are a day behind because we did the secret code, but that's ok.  For IXL, do U.3&4.  
For fun and an extension, write a friend a message using the grid from yesterday!  

Social Studies: (20 min)

New newspaper today for your reading pleasure!  We are reading week 20, The Rise of Communism.  As with Monday, today you will just be reading the paper.  I will have the WS for you to do tomorrow.  We will play another Kahoot tomorrow, so keep that in mind while reading today!

OK, I am going to post all of the work in the class notebook that I promised.  I will see you guys at 11:00!!
