Things We've Been Doing


In Language Arts, we have been working on a poetry unit and just finished making these 3 stanza haiku poems about the seasons. Another part of that includes these personifications!

We will soon be starting our debates and persuasive essays. 

Also to end the year we are reading a novel called "Indian Captive". This is based on a true story of Mary Jamieson whose family was attacked and captured during the battles for the continent. When seperated from her family she was forced to live as a member of the Seneca tribe. Eventually her feelings transform and she grows to love the life, even refusing to leave. It ties in well with our Social Studies too.
