Take a Peek at Our Week!

I am SO proud of these kiddos! They worked extremely hard on their "Zoochosis" assessment for our "Where Do You Stand" planner in lang & lit! As you remember, this assessment requires them to read and analyze multiple resources on the pros/cons of zoos, determine where they stand, and write a five paragraph argumentative essay communicating their opinion. Whew!! They persisted, they tried their best, they ROCKED it! I will be scoring the assessments and reflecting with the class next week after the NYS ELA assessment. After we reflect, students will bring home scores for both their resource analysis and argumentative essays to share with you!

In individuals & society, we continued to dig into historical documents. This week, we analyzed The Bill of Rights. Students used their resources to find student friendly versions of each amendment to help them understand the rights protected. Next up...The Declaration of Independence!

A reminder that the NYS ELA assessment is April 2-3. Please make sure your child eats a good breakfast and gets a good night's rest! As always, all I ask is that they try their best...this is a no stress zone! :-)

Have a great weekend!!!
