Heating up - Lazy Day

Today we worked on Compare/Contrast paragraphs. Most students did well with their clue words signifying whether the two items were the same or different. We also reviewed the character activities from the centers yesterday. We realized that while we read it is important to think about what the characters might be feeling and why. We studied irony and character's feelings in the story "Too Soon a Woman" where a pioneer family runs out of food. Someone they pick up along their travels has to take care of the family and eventually must eat a potentially poiSOnous mushroom in order to keep the kids from starving. Does she live?

While we accomplished a lot in class, we discussed how some days feel like lazy days. Everyone is tired not feeling their best. With the seasons changing, please get to bed early. Eat healthy food, eat breakfast. Wash your hands often. Get your sleep!

Enjoy the rest of the day!
