*If you need a refresher on the story, Chrysanthemum, please head to Epic and find it in the 'Mrs. Becksfort's Favorites' Collection. We will use this story for both writing and reading this week!
Writing:
This week we are finishing our Opinion Writing Unit. Remember what we’ve learned about facts vs opinions? We’ve spent time writing facts (things we can prove and are the same for everyone,) now we are going to spend time writing about opinions.
Head to Seesaw and watch the 4/14 writing mini-lesson. There are two parts. You’ll create a response on the book Chrysanthemum. (Download the pdf from email or there is a separate writing paper handout in Seesaw. Or, create your own writing paper to match!) Then, send your writing back to me via Seesaw! I can't wait to see/read what you think about this story!
Reading:
We are continuing our Characters Reading Unit together! Head to the Seesaw 4/14 mini-lesson and respond with a video describing a connection between two different characters in the same story. (This can be one of your stories!) You can compare their feelings, actions, or experiences.
*Optional* Extras/Additional opportunities:
*Write a letter or card to mail to a friend, family member, or Mrs. Becksfort
*Research something new – this is a great time to learn all about a new topic you've been curious about. Outer space? The Grand Canyon? A famous American? The possibilities are endless!
*Learn to cook or bake something – there is quite a bit of math involved in cooking and baking! Read the recipe, find the ingredients, set the oven, measure the ingredients, assemble the dish, and of course try it when it's done. It's also a great time to help with meals at home -assist in making them, setting the table, and washing the dishes afterwards!
*Do some Fitness- search YouTube for ‘Cosmic Kids Yoga,’ ‘Zumba for Kids,’ or ‘goNoodle.’
*Practice a sport or play a game outside
*Play with some playdoh or magnets
*Take a virtual fieldtrip
