This week we'll start with a getting to know one another activity as we create and present a Biopoem. On Tuesday, we'll begin our first writing unit as we discuss and analyze folklore and legends. This will later lead to our own Urban Legend writing assignment. Toward the end of the week, we'll begin preparing for the KS Writing Assessment and review persuasive techniques. We'll wrap up the week with a library book talk and a preview of the 3rd Quarter Independent Book Project.
