"That's Improper!"

0 Comments


Today we learned about the many types of fractions
we may encounter in life...

Sweet and polite PROPER FRACTIONS.



Rude and obnoxious IMPROPER FRACTIONS.




Totally confused MIXED FRACTIONS,
also called MIXED NUMBERS.




Here is a video that explains the different types of fractions above. It is equally obnoxious and awesome. Thanks Shmoop!







I have some exciting news...

Let's Write a Narrative

0 Comments




Think of interesting characters, 
a setting for your story,
and a plot.

What problem will your character(s) face?
How will the problem be solved? 

      




An engaging narrative includes thoughts, feelings, details, description, and dialog.

These things will bring your story to life for the reader!




I love this song about writing a personal narrative.

Turn up your speakers! 

The lyrics are typed below, so you can sing along. 



Thanks Mr. Laughton!





Write me a Narrative…
Beginning, Middle, and a Clear Cut End
Go on and tell me about…
Where you’ve been,
Moments small or big,
or you can…

Make up a tale from your imagination!

Kick it off with a strong lead.
Make it interesting.
Let us know who’s in it,
and the problem they’re facing.

Build up the action,
and pace your story right.
Make a solid sequence,
and use transitions
that help your story flow all the way along!

Bring it to a close with a
LESSON
or
REFLECTION
or
Some kind of THOUGHT.


Write me a Narrative…
Beginning, Middle, and a Clear Cut End
Go on and tell me about…
Where you’ve been,
Moments small or big,
or you can…

Make up a tale from your imagination!

T. F. and Triple D
Will make your words a story…

Thoughts
and Feelings
Details
and Description
and Dialog
Will make your story strong!

We want to
Feel what you feel.
See what you see.
Make it as real as it possibly can be.
WE’RE ALL ALONG FOR THE RIDE
and we see it through your narrator’s eyes!

Write me a Narrative…
Beginning, Middle, and a Clear Cut End
Go on and tell me about…
Where you’ve been,
Moments small or big,
or you can…
Make up a tale from your imagination! 


Make it your own creation.

IT’S TIME TO WRITE
BECAUSE THE WORLD IS WAITING.
