Today we really dug into some specific vocabulary to use and weave throughout our critique.
I remembered to say it in one class but not the other: notice that "critique words" are used throughout the entire paper. Particularly in the intro and conclusion paragraphs but also in the body of the paper. Do not simply re-tell the story but comment on the story as you are re-telling it. Re-read the sample critiques and notice how it flows and works together just as we did in class.
This paper is due next week. Also next week is our super secret, super fun Math Game Party!
We'll be getting in touch with you in a separate email about those details. Rhonda and Rose are the moms-in-the-know about the details of this so if you are a hostess, look for them on Tuesday. They'll be calling the shots since Karen and I will be focusing on the lessons at hand. They have really put together some fun ideas and it's going to be a party to remember for sure!
For those of you who missed class, we covered lesson #20 and I had a handout with some extra words to use for critiquing. If you would like a copy, please let me know. I will do my best to get it to you (it's not digital).
Just a reminder:
Level A- Introductory paragraph, one body paragraph that follows the story sequence chart from Unit 3, and a conclusion paragraph. 3 total paragraphs.
Level B- Intro. paragraph, 3 body paragraphs that follows the story sequence chart from Unit 3, and a conclusion paragraph. 5 total paragraphs.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Blessings,
Melissa
