October 20, 2014

Today we worked hard on editing/revising beyond the basics in our Fuel Expository.   

Check the rubric criteria every 5 minutes to stay on track with your editing and revising.  The rubric can be found in the headings section.

All students are to only work on Draft #1 and literally rip it apart with yellow highlighted areas showing lots of self-editing.  Parents can help edit/revise but are to use the "blue" editing color.

On Tuesday we will accurately review copy and paste into Draft #2.  Do not go into Draft #2 until Tuesday's review.

AR COMPETITION WEEK:  Read, Read, and Read!  Do AR tests before/during/after school to get as many points as possible!

Lastly, remember to go on IXL math online 4 times a week to strengthen math skills.  (Do grade 4 concepts and grade 5 ones we have covered so far this year)

Have a great night reading and writing!

Mrs. B
