Opinion Writing

  We are review the expectations of opinion writing. Students will practice this week with developing a strong paragraph. As they learn to include statements, reasons, facts & examples, and a conclusion, I will be providing guidance. Students will have anchor charts, examples, checklists as resources.

   Students will continue to read 2 passages on the same topic and determine which is firsthand and secondhand accounts. This includes primary and secondary sources. There will be a quiz on Thursday.

   On Friday, they will be given an assessment on vocabulary unit 4. They will have nightly tasks for spelling but also need to study the definitions.
