First of all, I would like to thank all of my parents and students for all the wonderful things that you have done around our school to make teacher appreciation week so special at Innovations Academy.
The staff and I are currently reading An Ethic of Excellence by Ron Berger. The point is to create beautiful work using peer critique and multiple drafts. We have been applying what we have learned so far. Today we critiqued a persuasive essay by James. The class came together to help improve the meaning and functionality of the piece. His essay entitled Lunch at the Park, is very convincing work.
We have recently been reading about early American History. Our essential question for this project is, how does early American History relate to me today? We have been discussing different possibilities for final out comes. Some outcomes included were power point time lines, plays of specific events, and a book complete with illustrations!
