Patrick shared with us about his trip to Dave and Busters. Sounded like a blast- food and video games, what more could you ask for.
In My Brother Sam is Dead, Tim and father traded their cows for a load of supplies in Verplanck's Point. On the way home, a blizzard blew in, but luckily they made it to their cousin's house for protection on the way home. Will Tim and father decide to go the faster way home in the storm and risk being attacked by the cow-boys again, or will they go the long way through the storm?
Measurement math concluded with a standard and metric real life word problems activity. Our 5 experts gave feedback to students from the corners while others remediation at the back table with me. It is vital to memorize the Garger's Gallon Man and metric conversion step chart for PSSA!
In the afternoon, students continued to draft their opinion essay about children visiting outer space. About 90% of our class says it would be a BAD thing if kids were allowed to go into space. Drafting will continue tomorrow and then revisions/edits will be applied.
In reading, we focused our attention on cause and effect in Dangerous Crossing. Dangerous Crossing is about John Adams leaving the colonies during the American Revolution in order to bring back supplies for the Patriots and continue negotiations with France.
