The snow was fun this week, but Ms. Clevenger's 4th graders were ready for class today. Since President's Day is Monday (school holiday for students), the students were given an assignment of researching a president and then writing a short paragraph about their subject. They were encouraged to pick a president that they were not familiar with to learn something new. We are using the website tntel.tnsos.org to gather our information. Learning how to find information, take notes and then transfer those notes into paragraph form is a skill that takes practice. I was proud of the work the students did today--next week we will type our rough drafts and then print...assignment complete!
Did I also mention how proud I am of their keyboarding skills??
Have a good weekend and stay warm.
