Nov.7 learning blog

Today for humanities we got back our rough draft of the descriptive paragraph that the teacher had edited. The we had to write the good copy of the paragraph and we had to make sure that this copy was detailed and had no errors. I think we did this because we will have to write many paragraphs throughout the years and for the following years as well, also we need to learn to use more descriptive words for the work that we write. Then after we were  done writing the good copy we set up our portfolios and filled them up with some stuff we have done so far such as think alouds, short story practice sheets, and something to show the teacher the progress we have made from the past few months. I think we did this because we need to learn how to organize our work properly and we will use this skill outside of humanities when we have to write our grad transmissions in grade 12 to show how much we've improved.
Reminder: Next week is innovation week so bring all your supplies to school and don't forget to bring your proposal sheet. Also there is no school on Monday.

  1. Thanks Manreet. You've made a great connection to what you will need to do in grade 12. Why is being descriptive in your writing important?
