I will be at Chewonki with the 6th grade this week, while I am gone Mrs. Ramsbothem will be covering my classes. The students will be working on their opinion essays and writing "Thank You" letters to a teacher in honor of teacher appreciation week. In Social Studies the kids will be continuing the learn about the early battles of the Revolutionary War- yesterday we covered Lexington and Concord and later this week they will get to Battle of Bunker of Hill.
Homework: IXL: UU 1-7 Greek and Latin Roots, Teacher Letter, and Opinion Essay To review for tomorrow's test we played Jeopardy as a class to review. I would project the question on the whiteboard and students wrote the answers on their individual white boards and hold them up....they earned points for any correct answers. After the game the kids with the most points were awarded candy :)
