Next Month; Next Step

Artifacts of student work includes 4 square writing,
homework, monthly unit exam, and construction
 of concluding sentences for persuasive essays. 

November bulletin board with modified textual 
reading, vocabulary tests, Venn diagram, 
and labeling vocabulary with visual support.


Teacher models and writes down student
examples. Then students worked in groups to 
identify (by underlining) the linking/transitional words.

Finally, students worked independently 
utilizing the linking words for their essays.
