This week's social studies focus has shifted to immigration. Specifically, students will learn about various groups of people and what their motivations were for coming to the United States. Additionally, students will explore what life was like for immigrants. Today they worked with a partner and read a text titled "Immigrants Speak." While they read with their partners, they identified facts, wrote down opinions, and made connections to this term's central idea.
We also discussed this week's vocabulary words and we read Gathering Blue.
Homework: Vocabulary, read for 30 minutes each night & practice for Literary Cafe
Edmodo: I've finally been able to set up our Edmodo class and students should join using the following code: 8ab3kd
