November 12
We started a new writing unit!
- We discussed facts vs opinions
- Learned about O.R.E.O writing organization (ask your student)
- Discussed ways to support and strengthen opinions (quotes, facts, personal experiences, comparisons, counter arguments, examples)
- Learned the planning process for opinion writing and looked at real essays examples that use this format
- We began brainstorming for our own writing and shared ideas with others using our social studies notes
We will be writing an essay over the next few days that supports the opinion that the Grassland Region is great place to live. It might be beneficial to discuss with your student reasons that your family lives in this region of Alberta!
In math we reviewed expanded notation for numbers to 10 000.
REMINDER:
- Please return Inline Skating Forms
- Book Orders due November 15
