Today in class, we were given a new assignment called Written Language Analysis. This assignment is due March 19th. Get a children's writing sample and use it to do the written assignment. Next, I read aloud a book called King Bidgood's in the bathtub By Audery Wood. I mentioned that this book was good to use for sentence fluency. Then, Caitie and Devin presented a lesson on details and descriptive words. We all sat in a circle and guessed what the first few pages of the book "A Medieval Feast" had said by paying attention to detail and looking at the pictures. Then, we were shown a picture of a carnival scene and asked to describe what we think is going on using details. We were then asked to share and given a Self-Evaluation sheet that we completed in parallel to our work. Finally, we turned in our writing evaluations and class was dismissed.
