Today, we used our creativity to create shape poems! A poem can sometimes be shaped to enhance the mood or meaning of the writing! :) @RobeyRockets #WeAreWayne

How can you find a poem’s rhyme scheme? I’m sure my third graders can help you! Just look at the last letter of every line, and find what rhymes! ✍🏼 @RobeyRockets #WeAreWayne

Today we read our story of the week with a text structure lens. We learned how to use signal words to find a particular text structure and how knowing the structure will help us better understand a story as we read. @RobeyRockets #wearewayne 📚 @TeachWith_MrsT

We learned that when given a rectangle with no square units, we can use the outside grid to help us find the side lengths to multiply! @RobeyRockets #wearewayne @TeachWith_MrsT

We learned how to label 🏷 /multiply the side lengths of a rectangle to find the area. After, we filled in the rest of the rectangle to check our work! @TeachWith_MrsT @RobeyRockets #wearewayne 🧐

For reader’s workshop 📚, we chose two picture or chapters books to compare and contrast the themes and used text evidence to prove it! We created a class chart to share out! @RobeyRockets #wearewayne @TeachWith_MrsT

@TeachWith_MrsT is using what we know about different book genres to reorganize our classroom library! @RobeyRockets #wearewayne 📚

Our new student teacher had us do a safe “snow ball” ⛄️ “fight”. 😆 We wrote down 3 facts about ourselves and threw it across the room. We picked up a “snow ball” and had to guess which person this snow ball was about! @RobeyRockets #wearewayne #classroomcommunity ❄️
