This week, students will wrap up their learning regarding how to identify various themes within literature. Students will then transition to learning about the concept of conflict. We will explore the four different types of conflict: character vs. self, character vs. character, character vs. nature and character vs. society. Students will be completing an in-depth study of the various types of conflict through the use of picture books and short video clips. If time permits, learners will be required to write a short story depicting a specific kind of conflict.
Last week, students went on a scavenger hunt to apply their learning of point of view. They were responsible for finding examples of various points points of view within books found in our classroom. Students used an online tool called Flipgrid to record videos of themselves identifying the POV. I was extremely pleased with their workmanship. Please click below to view your child in action!

Finally, this year we will be using Seesaw as an online digital portfolio. On Friday, I sent home an informational packet that you can use to assist you with downloading the app onto your phone or tablet. Please click HERE to be taken to the digital version. Students were told that they would receive two gator golds if you download the app this weekend!
