We are continuing to work on our "All about Me" magazines this week. Students are jotting down questions to discuss with their families in the Writing section of their binder, so you might want to ask them if they wrote any questions down. Tomorrow they will take a few moments to review their Beaufort Scale homework from Science class. The instruction given was that the written response was to be done in complete sentences, using proper capitalization and punctuation. I will be taking a writing grade based on their responses and so I will give them Thursday night to revise their papers before turning them in on Friday. The only points that I will be grading for writing will be punctuation, capitalization and complete sentences. They should have a solid base in these areas from third grade. As the year goes on, we will continue to add additional criteria to our writing grades.
