The children have been doing an amazing job of using the Zoom App to take classes. We have all worked hard and learned new things this week.
Today’s lesson was quite successful and can be reviewed here.
I wanted to repost the writing assignment here because we changed a little bit of the draft checking.
The assignment
Please write a letter to Mr. Chad (me). The letter will not be from you, but will be from one character of the play “The Shoemaker and the Elves”. You will write about what happened in their life after the story.
- You must include good grade 4 grammar.
- You must include possessives
- You must use Grade 4 level spelling.
- You must use 5 or more spelling words.
- The actions that you mention in your letter must be something predictable from the story.
- You must include the parts of a letter that we have learned.
- You must peer review your drafts.
Peer Review
Peer Review is a simple way to check something before passing it in to be marked. You have been doing this in class for years now.
When you peer review, you look at someone else’s work, and you give yours to them. Then just look down the checklist above to make sure is done right. Then sign your name and send it back to me.
Peer review can be done by Monday, but the final draft is due on Wednesday
