Writing: Revising & Editing 

Writer’s you are all so close to publishing! Today you will take the time to review what you have written (and typed in a doc in your writing folder). Revision is about making changes to your story to make it better and Editing is about spelling and the mechanics of writing. It is helpful to have a partner or two to work with at this point to ask for their feedback and get their help with spelling & punctuation. 

READING – Fantasy Book Clubs

Remember to have 1 cover  uploaded to your padlet and write across all of the columns, not just one column.  Also, it is important not to report but to think deeply about your book.  If one person reports something (for example character names) , then you should add to the post your thoughts and text evidence to support your thinking about those characters. Please email me when you need a new padlet for your group.

Everyone in the group should not repeat the setting/problem/solution:

  • Think about why the author chose the setting/problem/solution?
  • How did these elements affect your characters?
  • Why are these elements important?

Add on to your partners posts and either agree or disagree, but provide more text evidence in your thinking. Your posts should reflect 15-20 minutes of thinking to receive excellent participation credit. 

Cursive: Capital N and M (pp 95-96)

You can use your handwriting workbook to complete this work.  Please take a picture and insert it in your June elearning slideshow. Please watch the two videos to help with your formation of capital N and M. You may need to watch the videos more than once and then skywrite. Complete workbook pages pp 95-96.

Capital N tutorial

Capital M tutorial

Math: Angles

In this lesson you will need a few items:

  1. A pair of scissors
  2. A pencil
  3.  A piece of paper
  4. A post it note

In this lesson you will learn about angles and how to name specific types of angles. You will be asked to frequently pause the video and practice the skill. Then you will click un-pause to see if your answer or solution matches my own.

READING/WRITING: Fantasy Writing

Writer’s today is the day you’ve been waiting for! For the first time ever, third graders are going to be writing fantasy stories. In order to do this type of writing well, there needs to be a structure that is followed. We know how creative you all can be and want this to be an awesome learning experience, so please take your time with today’s exercise in letting your mind wander. Get your pencil and notebook ready, and then watch this video. 

Imaginative Narrative: What is it?

Generating ideas and daydreaming ideas should take about 20 minutes as you write and jot in a notebook. This is a very important step in your writing! Take a picture of your ideas from your notebook and put in your E-learning slideshow for me to review or post Seesaw.

I put the slides for this lesson in your writing folder and you can use the link below too. Make a new writing folder in your Google Drive  (Fantasy Writing) to help with organization.

Imaginative Narrative Part 1 Slides

 

READ: 20-30 minutes book club book #2 (some groups are ready for #3). Email me if you are ready for book #3, I will assign a fantasy book for your group to read. Today you have your padlet activity with your book club members. Look at my comments and suggestions on your padlet.  Remember to have 1 cover  uploaded to your padlet and write across all of the columns, not just one column.  Also, it is important not to report but to think deeply about your book.  If one person reports something (for example character names) , then you should add to the post your thoughts and text evidence to support your thinking about those characters.  Everyone in the group should not repeat the setting…think about why the author chose the setting? How does the setting affect your characters?  Why is the setting important? When listing the problems, the same is true. Don’t repeat the same problem your club members already posted…instead add on to your partners posts and either agree or disagree, but provide more text evidence in your thinking. Your posts should reflect 20 minutes of thinking to receive excellent participation credit.

Social Studies: Primary and Secondary Sources

Today you will be practicing your knowledge of primary and secondary sources. Follow the steps below:

  1. Watch the lesson video from Mrs. Mangan
  2. Check out the Primary Source Task cards to make educated guesses about whether the source stated is primary or secondary. 
  3.  Record your guesses on the Recording Sheet.

**Note- The google slides (copy and paste option) have hints on each slide to help you along the way, the PDF print option does not. If you still prefer to print, take a look at the slides for the hints to help you with each task card.

The links to task card #1 and the recording sheet to use for today are below. I also shared them with you in your social studies folder. In your SS Google Drive Folder make a new folder named “primary and secondary sources” to help organize your work.

Smart Fact

On this day in 1767 Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s first opera “Apollo et Hyacinthus”, written when he was 11 years old, premiered in Salzburg. I know Mozart has been featured in the smart facts section before, but can we just stop and recognize the genius that he was, having written his first opera at age 11. He was essentially a 6th grader when he did that. The Book of Henry, Gifted and Little Man Tate are stories/movies that feature child prodigies who struggle with their gifts and their desire to lead a normal life. Perhaps suggest one for your next family movie night?
