I explained to the children today the long term reading project. I gave them the paperwork and went over the directions for it. 1. Character comparison - compare yourself to a main character in your story. Tell 3 ways you are different and 3 ways you are like the main character. Fill in the venn diagram and then turn that information into 1 or 2 paragraphs on a separate sheet of paper. 2. Make a 3 sided pyramid that includes the following information from your book - (a) Setting - describe a scene in the story....tell about it and illustrate it (b) Characters - draw the main characters and write who they are (c) Conflict - describe a conflict that occured in the story and illustrate it. Remember, this project is due on September 24th. There will be some time to work on this in class, but not a lot.
The spelling enrichment words for this week are: 1. legislature
2. facade 3. kaleidoscope
4. technique 5. particular 6. identical 7. graduation 8. sediment
