Friday, May 1, 2020

Good morning, everyone.

Reminder: Please submit all of this week's assignments (one 3-2-1 list, Friday's writing, and your origami "horse") under the "April 27 - May 1" activity on FreshGrade.

Today's tasks are:

1. Daily 3-2-1

Read TODAY'S ARTICLE:
“Mural Connection” https://art.scholastic.com/issues/2019-20/120119/mural-connection.html
After reading, write a 3-2-1 list: 3 things you learned, 2 questions you still have, and 1 thing you really enjoyed. Then go online to hunt for answers to your 2 questions.

You will be asked to upload one of your 3-2-1 lists to FreshGrade sometime this week.

2. Daily 6-Trait Writing

Use THIS WEEK'S ANSWERS to mark your own work. Then, use THIS WEEK'S WRITING PROMPT to write a story. Upload your writing to FreshGrade by Monday.

THIS WEEK'S WRITING PROMPT:
Use your comparison chart from Day 4 to write the beginning of a short story. Use similes, metaphors, and personification to describe the setting.

THIS WEEK'S ANSWERS:



3. Financial Literacy

TODAY'S TASK:
Find a vessel -- a jar, can, small box, etc. Use this to create a piggy bank that reflects what you value -- the things that are important to you. Do this by decorating it with words, symbols, pictures, or drawings. Post a picture of your piggy bank by Monday.

4. Origami

THIS WEEK'S DESIGN:
“Horse” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Lr-e5bchCY&list=PLC66zMiv5uVOQapevA9Z-PLjWoqnmNy6O&index=61&t=0s

Today, upload a short video of you folding your horse or flipping it to FreshGrade. I understand this design was difficult. Just do your best and post a photo or video of your efforts!
