Semester 1:
Social Studies
In social studies we are learning about the evolution of storytelling which includes so many topics. We did cave art and learned about how our ancestors painted on the ceilings of walls and they used colors from berries. They also used the shapes in the walls to add a sort of 3d structure to it. We also learned about the invention of paper and invention of writing, we learned about the printing press, and oral storytelling. I have been raping all of these togther and were going to have a exhibition shortly on the evolution of storytelling. I think that everything has been going great so far on annotations. I am doing more than expected and I am probably getting better than exceeds. We went on a field trip and we created our own paper from what the other ancestors did. Of course we didn't get anything from outside from trees and other plants but it was sure fun. We do quick writes every morning and sometimes we have quotes but sometimes we have prompts. We also did a project on a story and this story was very important to me and I am very proud of it. Story of the week. Anyway, I love Nancy. She is an amazing teacher.
In social studys we have been working on annation a lot of important information and puttinf our thoughts down on paper. Ms. Nancy grades very fairly and I do a lot of annotations.
We learned about all about the evolution of storytelling and presented to our parents.
My reading goal is to finish all of the Harry Potter books by the end of 7th grade
Map quizzes are a lot of work but I am loving learning the different countries.
More Projects
In project three we are working on jappeness inprisonmet and we did socratic seminar about it and I did very well.
My goal is to increase my vocabulary in order to reach late 7th at the end of the year i-ready diagnostic. Its measurable because I can keep a vocab journal and I can pick words I don't know. Its attainable because its easy to look up words I don't know. Its relevant because I will find reading enjoyable. I will be able to set a deadline through the end of a journal.
