This week, students will be wrapping up their work with literary essays. This process has been slow-paced; however, each learner is beginning to understand the structure of this form of writing. I have guided students throughout the process and introduced the students to R.A.C.E. This acronym stands for restate, answer, cite evidence and explain. I have also encouraged students to color code the different components of their essays so that they can ensure that they have included all of the essential parts. I have been extremely happy with the students' efforts!
For the remainder of the week, 3PA will begin reviewing vocabulary for the upcoming story using Quizlet, an online site that assists students in learning new terms through interactive games. Students will then read "The Green Man" by Gail E. Hailey. If time permits, students will complete a literature web in order to examine the key words, big ideas, symbols, and feelings within the text.
