Twentieth Day of School

In Writing today, we made a labeled quick-sketch of our setting.

In Oral Language we listened and responded to a nonfiction selection about Roberto Clemente. We learned why he was famous and how he became a true American hero. We then generated a list of oral practice questions (CCSS ELA-Literacy.RI.1.1) which will become the foundation for our first Oral Language project:

1. Who was Roberto Clemente?
2. Where was he born?
3. What was he known for?
4. What kind of person was he?
5. What did he want to do?
6. How did he die?
7. How was he honored?

In Math, we will be finishing up an important modeling project which has taken us longer than usual which is why we have not had homework in math recently. Grades for this project will be posted on Schoology upon completion.
