Wednesday Feb 5: "There Will Be Wolves" Chapters 3-4
What did we do?
1. Today in Humanities we searched for Current Events topics that we could use as our next Current Events blog posts.
Why? (Learning Intentions)
We did this to help us learn more about what is going on in the world and to get more ideas for our blog posts, so that we can have a variety of ideas. Instead of just one that comes from Ms, Lees, we have ideas that come from the entire class.
2. We also looked over a partners Chapter 2 questions for There Will Be Wolves and checked to see if they made any formatting errors or made incomplete sentences. After we checked over our partners work, we marked and corrected the questions as a class.
Why? (Learning Intentions)
To help each other learn the proper way of writing the questions so that we can learn how to extend sentences and make it so that the question is in our answer all the time. Marking and correcting the questions was to help us see what the right answers were, and helped us see what our mistakes were so we could do a better job next time.
Tips:
Use proper grammar and punctuation
Don't just make the title "Chapters 3 and 4"
Include "There Will Be Wolves" or "TWBW" in your title
Use complete sentences
Homework:
There Will Be Wolves Chapters 3-4 questions are due on Friday.

Hi Laure
ReplyDeleteI think you are improving in your understanding of learning intentions. You describe them quite well with examples. However, I wonder if you notice that I don't use terminology like "marked" and instead I use language like "assessed" or "give feedback." I wonder if anyone in class can tell me the difference between the two tomorrow? Good check to see who is using the HW blog as a tool to help our class work together :)
