Here is the plan for today:
Period 1 - Red light, read aloud, reader's workshop. We'll look specifically at character traits vs character feelings...zeroing in on Despereaux. The kids will then hopefully look for a trait or feeling from the main character in their books.
Period 2 -Writer's workshop. Mini lesson is going to lean into Kate DiCamillo's style in The Tale of Despereaux...the kids are going to write their own 'serious' book of 'You'.
Period 3 if it's nice we'll stay outside for a bit. When we come in we'll work on fractions...trying our best to divide both circles and rectangles into various fractions (it's one thing to identify a fraction...it's another to draw it).
Period 4 Music with Mrs. Haynes (she's back).
Period 5 we'll do a 'fraction scavenger hunt' around the school.
Period 6 we'll do some 'spring chicken art' where we investigate different kinds of lines.
