4PA Update

This week, students will be wrapping up their learning about the eight parts of speech.  We will be exploring conjunctions, prepositions, and interjections.  Each learner will continue to be exposed to picture books, videos, and cooperative learning opportunities to deepen their understandings of the content being studied. Students will also view the Schoolhouse Rock videos to review their learning.  Below are some pictures of students engaging in a Kagan structure called Numbered Heads Together. Their task was to identify the different parts of speech within a given sentence.  I was so impressed with their engagement and accuracy!

We will begin learning about point of view. Students will engage in an interactive lesson to help them learn about first, second, and third-person point of view.  They will also be learning how to identify the different point of views when reading texts. 

Finally, we will be using one of my favorite texts, Because of Winnie Dixie to practice identifying theme within a text.  If time permits, we will begin exploring Seesaw...more information about this online portfolio will be coming soon!
