L.A.

-Punctuation, spelling and capitals will be our focus through the use of our agendas (accuracy in copying messages that model good writing form) and we will also pursue this worthy self-editing goal soon in our personal dictionary/spellers.

-P.A.R.I.S.

-Poetry: Students will continue to build upon their own poetry anthology.  This week, we hope to complete our fifth and sixth types of poems, Une mère and Quiz Poems.  Students will have ample opportunity to read the poems of their classroom peers as they have the added responsibility as peer editors.  During the poetry unit, the teacher will read at least one poem per day.  Students who have either written or found a poem will be given the opportunity to share them with the class.

-Journal Entry: What Mother’s Day Means to Me

F.L.A.

-Students will be using the classroom’s French-English dictionaries to translate their One Mother poems into French.

-French is taught using the four modes/skills of learning.  This means that all students have the opportunity to learn through listening, speaking, reading and writing.
