Language Arts:
Today was a fun day in Language Arts! After we finished with reviewing and practicing our grammar skill of the week, we gathered by the rocking chair and worked on some research on the Ipad which involved different kinds of deciduous and coniferous trees for creating our brochures. The students really enjoyed viewing the different kinds of leaves of each tree and learning all the specific facts about where they are found and what particular things their wood is used for.
Homework:
***Weekly Homework Packet- due Friday
***Picture prompt writing and brochure will be due on Monday.(These should be kept at school because the students will have time to work on them as they finish up other things in class.)
