I'm at home, resting after emergency surgery on Sunday. Everything is ok, and I'll be back in a few weeks. In any case, I got this from Miss Perino, who is the teacher now.
We read "On the Sidewalk Bleeding". Talked about the discussion questions before filling in the answers independently.
We also discussed what "Compare" and "Contrast" mean, where compare notes the similarities, and sometimes differences, between two subjects. Contrast notes ONLY the differences.
We introduced to the idea of the Comparative paragraph and began to jot down ideas for what character student will compare ourselves to for the paragraph assignment!
Sounds like a great class!
