Wednesday, May 20th

Good morning!

Google Meet:
I sent all of you a Google Meet invitation for Thursday morning at 10. It will be nice to see each other again. It will also give us an opportunity to say goodbye to Mr. K as I will now be assigning you Math activities. If you able to join us for this Meet, please go to your e-mail and accept the invitation!

Language:
Last week, we focused on reading and understanding non-fiction texts. This week, we are going to do some research and some informational/explanatory writing. Explanatory writing is non-fiction and tells the reader about a topic. Here is a great anchor chart that shows you how to structure an explanatory (informational) paragraph.


Here is an example of an explanatory paragraph. I used a highlighter to show you the parts of the paragraph:


Today, I would like you to log onto Epic Books, and read the book about mammals that I assigned to you. If you do not have our class code, please e-mail me.


Once you have read it, I would like you to to fill out this graphic organizer explaining what makes a mammal a mammal. You do not have to use complete sentences for the details as this is just to organize your thinking. Tomorrow, you will turn these ideas into a paragraph!
