Bits and Pieces

Now that summer is just about here, what are your plans?

What brave adventure have you gone on? Describe a time where you did something out of the ordinary.

Would you be brave enough to trek into the unknown, like Bingham did, to discover something new? Explain. (Write a short essay, as we’ve been discussing.)

So now what? What is it you’d still like to learn in 4th grade?

Tell us what you have planned for your week off.  Use as many adjectives as you can.

Which do you prefer, our regular reading or the literature circles? Give reasons for your answer.

Have you ever solved a mystery like Encyclopedia Brown? Or perhaps you just like reading/watching mysteries.  What’s your favorite?

Give us a preview of your autobiography. Share one clip (short story) that you are planning to include in your book.

What do you think of our trip to the Double JJ Ranch? Share your funny stories too.

Okay, let’s share some “Storm” stories. Think back to a time you were in a big storm, as our author was in Hurrican Andrew. Share your tale.
