In <\/span><b>literacy (reading, writing, listening and speaking)<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, students have continued working on their graphic novels and have explored how settings can change the emotion or mood of characters in a story.\u00a0 During <\/span><b>Unit of Inquiry<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, students have worked to deepen their inquiry into migration and climate change by connecting the two through research and as the theme or problem that needs a resolution in their next graphic novel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>HOME LEARNING<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The maintenance of home learning reading\/ writing and mathematics is important in consolidating fundamental skills.

This is a great conversation starter and gives a great window into how they are doing as responsible, independent agentive learners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">At this time of year and as we draw nearer to important year end assessments it is especially important to remain up to date with materials, assignments, and assessments posted onto Google Classroom. This week students were asked to complete the following for home learning:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Math:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Sprints, Problem Sets, and Exit Tickets with daily suggestions (assigned through Google Classroom)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400\"><b>Reading:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Written responses to reading (hard copies) with daily suggestions (assigned through Google Classroom<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>School Events &#8211; Important Dates<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Over the next three weeks, students will participate in end of year assessments in Spelling, Reading, Writing, Math and of course UOI.
