Persuasive Homework Assignment

This weekend you have a job to do.  Your job is to find a persuasive article, ad, or commercial.



If you have a commercial, you need to email the link to me, Mr. Lee.

Here is a video we watched in class to introduce the idea of persuasion...

Wordo

We sometimes play a game called Wordo. This game 1) has kids practice spelling and reading the Nifty Thrifty Words, and 2) has kids practice listening for prefixes, suffixes, and root words.

I will say a word and the students cover all the words on their card that have the same prefix, suffix, or root word.  When you have three in a row you shout "Wordo".

Here are last week's winners.

Good things - Some students were able to do the grade 6 test. - Colby, Sam, Liam, Elijah, Jesse, and other students liked that it took so long so they could read their books. - Extra work could get done. - Keean sat at my desk, and liked the grade 6 Math. - There was a bonus question that was VERY challenging that Tye liked. - Nathan liked that he could study before doing the test. - Kate liked that she had a study sheet with the questions she needed practice on. Madison agreed. - Jacob liked that he could do fractions. - AGV liked the option of doing two different tests. - Elijah thought the test was really easy. - Jesse liked the extra challenge. Things to improve - During the middle some students were too loud. Some people got in trouble. - Jacob would like to try working at his desk. - If students stay put, then they will not be a distraction. - It was tough for some students who needed some help and Mr. Lee was busy.
