New Homework Due Thursday, January 30th

Students have been analyzing newspaper articles and learning what makes an excellent piece of functional writing, in class. Over the next two nights, students are asked to complete homework related to what they've been learning in Writer's Workshop. At home, students will need to access Google Drive. They will build a Google Doc that has a three column and five row table. Using the 'child friendly' newspaper article websites that were shared with them through Google Drive earlier this week, students will need to hunt for five articles with excellent headings and subheadings. If an article does not have a subheading, they need to move on, and continue to search for an article with both a heading and subheading. In the table, they will copy the heading, the subheading, and the website link from where they found the article. Homework will look completed when they have five headings with associated subheadings. An extra challenge that was posted to students was to find two of the five articles related to 'Sky Science'.

Here is an example of what the table should look like in Google Doc:

If students have questions about their homework, they are encouraged to come see me on Wednesday since it is due Thursday.

Thank you for your support.
