Homework:
Vocab final is Thursday
Be ready to ready your piece to the class.
Today:
Reviewed vocabulary
Shared pieces
From the beginning of this last unit, I explained to the students that I wanted them to write something that others should read/hear. I am using the sharing time for that purpose. I am recording what they read, but I am not posting individual files like I did in the beginning of the year. I might post the whole class as one file, or I might not. I will see how it goes. I mostly just want them to get up and share their piece. I am recording it because I have missed capturing some great pieces in the past!
If they read over 2 minutes and 30 seconds, I will give them an A+, 2:00 is an A, 1:45 is a B, 1:30 is a C, 1:15 is a C-, 1:00 is a D, and :45 is a D-. One student today actually stopped at 30 seconds. We encouraged her to read a little more. The time they have to read is not a surprise for the students.

This blog is mostly used for keeping parents and students posted about the most recent events in my class, namely my daily plans or anything important I feel needs to be expressed.
