We revisited their, there, and they're today. We took a student-created quiz, and when given sentences students are choosing the correct homonym most of the time. Now the challenge is to apply that knowledge and use it consistently in our writing!
We're beginning another narrative writing project: a narrative essay. Students will be writing about an event they experienced that taught them something. The lessons learned may range from something practical--like "always hike with a partner"--to something more personal--like "I learned to always be myself". We began the project with some prewriting activities, and students should be prepared to dig in to writing on Wednesday.
We took a quick look at dialogue in books and noted the need to begin a new paragraph every time a new person speaks. And we spent a little time in class, as we do most days, reading.
Homework for Wednesday: Make sure to have a topic chosen for the narrative essay, and READ!
