October is a current events month! We will be practicing together how to find articles from the links on the class blog and how to
write good questions for current event sheets. Current Events calendar will be coming home in homework folders Tuesday October 8. Students have
been assigned dates to bring in and present their current events. During their own presentation, students should be prepared with the following information:
- Tell the current event in your own words.
- Complete a current event sheet according to the instructions in your homework folder.
- Attach the article you chose.
Please carefully read the instructions and the grading rubric found in
your homework folder in order to receive full credit. Look under our
Current Event tab on our home page for links to find news that is interesting, exciting, and informative in a kid friendly way. Just a
reminder...If your students is using another source besides the sites on
our blog (ex: DOGO, TFK, or Scholastic News) please check to make sure
that articles are appropriate for young students.
Please no violent or graphic crimes and news. :) We still have many little tender hearts inside our classroom.
High fives to all our budding new reporters!
